For the second consecutive day, the WNBA postponed three games following the weekend shooting of Jacob Blake.In Bradenton, Florida, in the WNBA bubble, Chicago was to face Indiana, New York was to meet Dallas and Las Vegas was set to play Seattle on Thursday night. “This is not a strike.
This is not a boycott. This is affirmatively a day of reflection, a day of informed action and mobilization," said WNBA players' union president Nneka Ogwumike on ESPN.So far six games have been postponed over the past two nights.
The league had just passed its halfway mark of the 22-game season. With teams playing pretty much every other day in the bubble, the postponed games will most likely have to be made up after the regular season ends Sept.
