Pride in resemblance to Courtney Williams backfires for NBA star as fans call Lynx Guard ‘Better Baller’

“I still like guys, but I have to wear a skirt because I like guys?” In her eight years in the WNBA, Courtney Williams has been discussed on several aspects, including her unique appearance. While SB Nation described her appearance before joining the women’s league as more “traditionally feminine,” Williams herself admitted that she adopted the cropped hair look to present herself in a way that was important to her. While not many have chosen to put her looks at the forefront of her stats, the same has now become a conversation thanks to an unusual comparison by an NBA player.

Earlier today, San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan took to his official X account to watch the recent matchup between the Minnesota Lynx and the New York Liberty. With his franchise’s season opener only a few days away, the player may have taken the opportunity to check out the other professional basketball league. Sochan eventually gave a shoutout to Williams, not by highlighting her achievements, but by saying, “Let’s go twin!”

Sochan often draws comparisons to Chicago Bulls and Detroit Pistons legend Dennis Rodman and is known to often experiment with his appearance by dying his hair in unusual combinations. His recent beige hair look is the same one that Courtney Williams has been sporting for quite some time, prompting the NBA player to make the comment. Unfortunately, the comparison isn’t something every basketball fan seems to have something good to say about.

How did fans react when Jeremy Sochan made a comparison to Courtney Williams?

One social media user decided not to show any sympathy for the Spurs player. He ignored the appearance assessment and chose to write down Sochan’s stats, saying, “She’s a better baller than you.” Yes!
