Former NBA player Royce White told OutKick/Fox News Digital that he apparently plans to declare for the 2027 WNBA Draft, as he now claims to be transgender.
There are now two former NBA players to announce such a decision, after Enes Kanter Freedom made his announcement earlier on Friday.
"I'm transgender. I'm a woman. I identify as sometimes identifying as a woman for purpose of basketball, professional basketball, so I'll be declaring for the WNBA draft in 2027 as well," White said.
"I think I’d be unstoppable. But I’m a team-first guy. I’m a pass-first kind of player. I do the little things. I led my team in all five major stat categories at Iowa State University, so I do a little bit of everything. I’ll do whatever the coach needs me to do. I’ll do whatever the girls need me to do...
"I think it’s only fair."
White said only the league could end his challenge by stating its position plainly on the subject of males playing in women's sports.
"I think the WNBA could come out and make a definitive statement about guys with a pair of balls playing in the Women’s Association," he said.
Asked whether he would proceed unless the league did make such a statement, White replied, "Oh, no, I’m declaring. And I don’t want to be discriminated against. I want fair treatment. I’m a young Black, hopefully United States Senator that would like a fair chance to participate as a sometimes-identifying-as-a-transgender-woman athlete."
White, 35, is also on the ballot in Minnesota’s Aug. 11 Republican primary for the U.S. Senate. He was the Republican nominee against Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar in 2024, losing the general election.

You go girl!!!
Does the WNBA take walk-ons?...........Asking for a friend.........😎
Excellent!
Get your popcorn out while the WNBA twists itself into pretzels as it tried to explain why 'certain' men can play in their league while others are persona no grata.
This is a hoot. Before you know it, WNBA franchises will be competing for retired pros, college players, even talented high schoolers — provided they’re willing to say they’re women. Britney Greiner will have plenty of company . . . and competition. Step aside, cis-women.
This will put the Political correct weasels at the WNBA in a trap of their own making. LOL. I love it.
Maybe Michael Jordan will sign up!..................
If the GYNBA gets enough self-identifying women, it may actually become watchable.
This is too funny.
I expect Inez Cantor Freedom to dominate. I wish “her” much success!
W stands for Woke…..
LOL!
When are high school boys going to start taking girl’s scholarships at a lot of these woke universities? It should be free college for a lot of them.
I really hope it happens to make a bigger political issue out of all the nonsense. A lot of liberal women may have to rethink their position if the girl’s teams have 10+ boys that identify as female. Force the libs to define what is a real woman.
These ‘trans’ players were trapped inside a woman’s body for 9 months. Congratulate them for finally accepting who they really are.
Can't wait for men to start playing women's professional tennis and competing in figure skating.

Who isn't? It's really about time a few biologists spoke up.
You can see the issue. And I see why boys are entering girls’ sport. And it’s because they’re being told boys can’t play sports due to Title IX.
