The timing of her retirement comes after a year full of controversy in the WNBA. Indiana Fever’s Sophie Cunningham’s comments about trans athletes in women’s sports and the treatment of Caitlin Clark have been the dominating storylines throughout this season.
“After more than seven years at the WNBA and more than 40 total years in business, I have made the decision to retire as WNBA Commissioner,” Englebert said in a statement.
“In 2019, I had the privilege of being appointed the league’s first commissioner and to lead a league with enormous potential yet untapped awareness and significant undervaluation. Over the years, it has been amazing to watch WNBA players thrive and lead the massive cultural surge around women’s sports.”
