went through hassles with the Wings. I can remember her talking about it and it got to the point where, despite being signed, they wouldn't let her workout at the practice facility or use the equipment etc. As I recall she was also not allowed locker room/facility access when her teammates would be there. Really weird crap because apparently they didn't like how she handled timing of pregnancies etc. Now with the huge growth from CC in the W the money rolling in to teams/the NBA should give the women more leverage to make starting/having families easier for the players since the management/owners aren't going to want to look like they are being punitive around these issues for players.
