Marina mabrey gay

We hang out every day and do everything together,” Rivers said.

Whether it’s a late-night TikTok live where Rivers tries (and often fails) to teach Mabrey dance moves like the Shamar or a viral pool video where Rivers stands close behind Mabrey, their chemistry is impossible to ignore. That could be a good thing, since it’ll open the athletes up to claiming their place in league history.

Two players looking to do exactly that this season are Tiffany Hayes—who came out of a 30 second retirement last year to win 6th man of the year— and Kate Martin, the Iowa baller who quickly became last year’s most likeable rookie.

Dallas Wings

This team is the place to be if you’re gay this year!

Rivers described Mabrey’s dancing as a work in progress, joking about her teammate’s lack of rhythm, while Mabrey admitted she was trying her best. Even after losing Betnijah Laney-Hamilton to an MCL tear, they’re still expected to win the league.

And while Rivers has openly shared that she’s part of the LGBTQ+ community, Mabrey hasn’t made any such statement.

So, whether it’s just a deep friendship or something a little more?

Rivers said in an interview, highlighting how their friendship goes beyond the court. It’s a very cute little group of settled down queers!

There’s a reason I called the Liberty the ultimate bandwagon team.

Their ability to find joy—whether through dance classes, TikTok videos, or shared moments at public events—has endeared them to fans and kept team morale high.

The buzz around Marina Mabrey and Saniya Rivers isn’t just about dating rumors—it’s about their infectious energy and authentic connection. Courtney Williams is one of the most electric players you’ll ever see touch a ball.

This group could definitely make a splash despite how disjointed it initially seemed. However, all of those moments could easily pass for two genuinely close best friends who simply love being around each other. The way the draft worked was that each team could protect 6 players and the Valkyries went on to choose one from each team after that.

People have spotted the two being cute together multiple times.

The most recent sighting came when they were both a few feet inside the water, chilling in the pool together.

They’ll almost surely be in the top 3 teams throughout the year, so if you’re looking for a bandwagon to hop on that’s not the bandwagon (**new liberty fans I’m looking at you**) this is the one.

In terms of queer things to know, Chelsea Gray and her wife Tipsea Moorer are absolutely adorable together.

Atlanta Dream

With only two out gay players, it might seem like the dream aren’t that gay, but they are certainly going to be fun to watch.

Their friendship blossomed quickly, and fans couldn’t help but notice their playful, sometimes flirtatious interactions. She made her Olympic debut last year at 32 years old and is just overall someone very worth rooting for. Off the court, she has a wife and kids that are incredibly cute. Off the court, Williams and Heideman run the Twitch stream “Studbudz” where they talk about their life, gay things, and just generally have a great time.

Phoenix Mercury

After Diana Taurasi announced her retirement, Natasha Cloud and Brittney Griner left Arizona (and the beautiful new practice facility) and headed for greener pastures.

Cheryl Reeves, the coach, is one of the winningest coaches in the world and has been able to get her teams to the WNBA championships in a way nobody else has.
