Interesting article from ESPN. Nice coverage of female coaches in the NBA. I had no idea there were more than a couple. But the title is weird.

"Basketball is a Genderless Sport"
“Basketball is a genderless sport. The ball has no difference whether a man’s holding it or a woman’s holding it,” said Becky Hammon, who was named as an assistant coach for Gregg Popovich's Spurs in 2014, becoming the first woman to hold a full-time coaching position in the NBA."
Of course, there are no woman playing in the "genderless NBA," where they use a larger ball because, er, men's hands are larger than women's hands.
