An 18-year-old was arrested on Tuesday by police at the WNBA meeting between Phoenix and Connecticut after throwing a dildo that hit another spectator. The incident is the latest in a series involving thrown sex toys in WNBA basketball.
According to the police, the 18-year-old said that it was "a joke" and a trend that he had seen "on social media".
On three occasions in the past week, sex toys have been thrown in during different WNBA matches. Several players have spoken out and condemned the incidents as disrespectful and dangerous.
