WNBA Star Retires Early After Teammates Bully Her For Being Heterosexual

Former WNBA star Candice Wiggins claimed in an interview with The San Diego Union-Tribune on Tuesday that she abruptly left the league last year because her teammates harassed her for being a heterosexual.
"It wasn’t like my dreams came true in the WNBA. It was quite the opposite," Wiggins said.
Wiggins, 30, retired from the Minnesota Lynx in 2015 after major accomplishments led to her national recognition. She was the 3rd overall draft pick from Stanford in 2008, she was a four-time All-American, she was the sixth player named Woman of the Year as a rookie, and she won a championship with the Lynx.
