The Women's National Basketball Association said it is rescinding
fines imposed on players who violated league uniform rules in expressing
support for the "black lives matter" movement.
WNBA President Lisa Borders made the
announcement Saturday, following fines imposed on teams and players and
criticism from some players.
The Indiana Fever, New York Liberty and Phoenix Mercury were fined
$5,000 each, and each player was fined $500 for wearing black T-shirts
during pre-game warm-ups in the wake of recent shootings by and against
police officers.
