this Los Angeles Sparks This week came under fire on social media for posts by some users claiming sexual behavior to one of the team’s players.
Sparks’ X page shared an article Tuesday afternoon teasing the team’s game Seattle Storm Later that night.

Fans don’t seem to be impressed by the decision to post Barker in this way.
One user wrote: “Where is the man in the jersey.”
Another added: “These matchday posts blow me up. There isn’t one or nothing, just a trap of thirst.”
Another user wrote to some extent: “If this is an official team exchange, what are the opportunities for women to exercise? Do they play on their underwear? Then put on the FKN jersey on GameDay.”
Sparks previously shared game days for players wearing uniforms.

Just last week, Spark forward Cameron Brink received similar criticism from fans online, accusing the former first-round draft pick of spending more time “down the red carpet and schmoozing” than recovering from ACL injuries.
“She should be back on the court now, and something tells me if she does as much rehabilitation work as she can in recovery and she recovers along the red carpet and schmoozing, she will be back now.”

“I work hard every day. I’m going to give anything on the court now. Basketball is my passion, everything for me…to say this is not a real fan.

“Thanks to those who know ACL for spending a year and giving me grace. I can’t wait until I play again.”
Brink, 23, has been eliminated since tearing ACL with The The ACL in June 2024 Connecticut Sun. Before her injury, she averaged 8.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game.
