Basketball analyst Chris Williamson praised the intensity of the WNBA All-Star game and called out the NBA and its players for not putting up a competitive game. He blamed the male athletes for not taking the All-Star games seriously when they could put on a great entertaining show for the fans if they were competitive.
Williamson expressed his thoughts through his official social media handle. He made a post on X, formerly Twitter, to praise the marquee event.
"This level of competition from the ladies just shows me how weak the nba players look for half-a**ing their all star games," Williamson said.

"Rightful to point out Olympic year changes things for ladies but all-star games can be competitive if players want too and they not afraid of the bright lights."
