Two WNBA players, Courtney Williams and Crystal Bradford, are involved in a brawl (Twitter)
The two WNBA players, Courtney Williams and Crystal Bradford, have been punished for their involvement in the violent and ugly brawl, the videos and documentation from which have stirred the league recently.
Williams and Bradford were documented as they severely beat other women in Atlanta in front of a food stall.
Both were seen sending violent blows to a number of women, including kicks and punches.
Williams and Bradford played in the Atlanta Dreams.
Atlanta's season was already over when the video was released, and the team had no option but to punish them other than to officially inform them that they were not staying and their contract was not extended.
Now the WNBA management has decided to take action, announcing: Williams is suspended from two games, Bradford from one game, and they will not be paid for them of course.
Both players are currently free, and have yet to find a team, and the US is wondering if they will be able to find a place in the league.

Williams is considered a talented offensive player, and the assessment that she will have no problem finding a team.
Bradford on the other hand, who was selected in the first round of the 2015 draft, had a hard time finding a team even before that, was given a chance in Atlanta last year after five seasons out of the league, and now it will not be easy for her to get another chance.
"This is a terrible incident, I know, and I very much regret it," Williams tweeted yesterday.
It should be noted that after the video was published, Williams jokingly joked about it together with her partner, the YouTuber Glamazontay, and also had to apologize for it.
Williams, No. 8 pick in the 2016 draft, averaged 16.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists last year.
