Retired basketball superstar, Kobe Bryant was quoted as saying he believed there are currently three women in the WNBA who could play in the NBA.
“Diana Taurasi, Maya Moore, Elena Della Donne. There’s a lot of great players out there so they could certainly keep up with them,” he said.
Unlike the WNBA, which is a professional basketball league held up as a form of charity for women by the NBA, the NBA is not a gender specific league. The NBA is a professional basketball league which hires the best players available.
Does Kobe Bryant really believe women could play in today’s NBA? Do you?
