A WNBA game was halted for several minutes resulting in a fan's ejection from the arena in a bizarre series of events the could not happen in any other league.
The Washington Mystics hosted the Phoenix Mercury at CareFirst Arena in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, when the unique incident happened late in the third quarter.
After former WNBA Finals MVP Kahleah Copper ran around a pick near her opponent's bench, teammate Alyssa Thomas is heard screaming at the referee for a timeout to stop the play.
Upon review, Mystics' guard Jade Melbourne is actually seen grabbing the wig right off of Copper's head, but it is unclear if it was intentional.
