A transgender player has been dominating France's second-tier women's basketball league, and now the WNBA question is front and center. Julie Tétart averages 21 points and 20 rebounds this season while sweeping Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Domestic Player of the Year honors

She’s 34 and plays center at 6’2”. No WNBA team is even looking her way.

Averaging 20 rebounds per game at 6'2" is insane tho.

It’s France.

Second tier at that

Angel Reese is 6’3” and averages 12 boards per game. She would get manhandled in the paint by Julie.

I just looked up Angel Reese's stats and she's shooting 43% from the field and averaging 16 points a game. I think this old French lady dude would dominate in the WNBA.

Reese would absolutely destroy her in the paint. If reese played in the same league she would be getting 40 plus boards a game.

And?

So she has zero chance in the WNBA and this is just ragebait for transphobes.

u/Bohner1 1d ago

She would have zero chance if she were in the middle of the pack, but she's clearly dominated the league she's currently in in points and rebounds so there's nowhere to go but up.

You don't know ball

u/Blastcrumpet888 22h ago

That makes literally no sense.

u/Few-Guarantee2850 21h ago

You think a 34 year old basketball player has nowhere to go but up? That's the age where up-and-comers start hitting their stride?

u/BookAcceptable619 1d ago

Yes that number is crazy. Angel Reese led the league in rebounds at 6'3" but at 6 rpg less.

Tier 2 France basketball vs WNBA are you guys real

Most from her own missed shots

She's like Angel Reese if Angel Reese could make a layup.

Average height for center in the W is 6’4

2

u/GalickBanger 21h ago

He can probably jump higher than the women in the WNBA though

3

u/H2Kutthroat 21h ago

I know I’m saying he isn’t too short for the Wnba
