ATLANTA _ U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who also co-owns the Dream, released a letter Tuesday objecting to the WNBA's plans to honor and participate in the "Black Lives Matter" movement during its coming season.
Loeffler's comments were met with backlash and calls for her to be removed from the league.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution spoke with longtime Dream star and two-time Olympian Angel McCoughtry, who now plays for the Las Vegas Aces, about her former owner's comments, Loeffler's place in the league and the WNBA season.
