Becky Hammon didn’t hold anything back while addressing the officiating to media after a 95-87 loss to the Dallas Wings on Thursday.
The Las Vegas Aces coach was candid about her thoughts on the free-throw disparity.
“I’m (expletive) tired of that (expletive),” Hammon said.
“When Awak Kuier shoots more free throws than A’ja Wilson, Jackie Young, and Chennedy Carter all combined, that’s a problem. We’re not getting the same whistle. Give me my fine,” she added.
The Wings shot 22 free throws to the Aces’ 12, including four for Kuier.
Wilson, the reigning MVP, shot just one free throw, while Young and Carter shot none.
Hammon is no stranger to voicing displeasure with referees, calling the physicality “out of control” in the Aces’ semifinal series with the Indiana Fever last season.
She was also fined $1,000 after defending fellow coach Cheryl Reeve’s criticism of officials in September 2025.
The three-time WNBA champion coach could very well have another fine coming her way after Thursday’s outburst.
