Team sports trade injured players all the time. While she may not be injured, her body is certainly going to go through some trauma that will put her in the hospital and leave her with life-long issues.

Bone structure changing probably isn't the best thing for an athlete.

We see professional athletes come back from pregnancy all the time.

You are making it sound like she is guaranteed to be washed as a basketball player when she returns.

No. Not at all. She was traded. Not banned from the sport.

Not true in the least.

You obviously aren’t a woman or a man who knows women who have had kids.

Why is it that every time someone on the internet starts with “so…” what follows is obviously bullshit?

You win the gold in mental gymnastics, incel.

I'm an incel because I haven't immediately dismissed her athletic abilities because she had/is having a baby?

You win the gold and are an incel because you are an incel who can’t recognize that women can have lifelong issues from pregnancy that have no effect at all on their athletic ability.

That is a completely different statement than your previous comment. My wife didn’t have complications during pregnancy but she developed easily triggered nausea after being pregnant. She now has a higher risk of heart attack due to pre-eclampsia also from pregnancy. Again - totally fine pregnancy without any major complications.

That sounds like a major complication. Again, OP indicated the trade was justified because it's a guarantee the player will develop health issues.

There are many, many major complications that are entirely common due to pregnancy. None are by choice and none guaranteed. The trade justification is bollocks as well but that wasn’t what I was responding to. The nausea my wife experiences would definitely cause havoc on the court though.
