WNBA players unite in support of Kelly Loeffler's opponent in U.S. Senate race

WNBA players are not hiding their disdain for Kelly Loeffler.

The Atlanta Dream co-owner and Republican U.S. senator from Georgia has put herself at odds with the league by protesting its support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Players are responding by protesting her.

Chicago Sky players displayed their contempt for Loeffler on Tuesday by showing support for her opponent in her upcoming Senate race. As they exited the team bus en route to their matchup against the Dallas Wings, Sky players wore shirts reading “Vote Warnock.”

It was part of a larger movement seen across the WNBA as the day progressed.
