Reading this made my head hurt trying to decipher what it is
So how does the reporter know when to use which pronoun in each paragraph??

Los Angeles Sparks guard Layshia Clarendon, a leader in the WNBA's social justice initiatives, the league's first openly transgender and nonbinary player and a 2017 All-Star, announced their retirement Friday on Instagram
quote:
Clarendon, who uses she/her, he/him, and they/them pronouns, was drafted ninth by the Indiana Fever in 2013.
quote:
She also played for the Atlanta Dream, with whom she was named a 2017 WNBA All-Star, the Connecticut Sun, the New York Liberty and the Minnesota Lynx before finishing her career with the Sparks. She posted a triple-double in the Sparks' season opener against the Dream in May.
quote:
During the 2020 bubble season, Clarendon and the Liberty wore "Trans Lives Matter" shirts, but Clarendon hadn't publicly shared their gender identity. That changed after the season, when Clarendon shared that they were nonbinary and transgender.
quote:
She helped negotiate the WNBA's historic 2020 collective bargaining agreement,
quote:
They advocated for LGBTQIA+ inclusive policies across the league as well as for racial justice.
quote:
Clarendon led the Golden Bears to their first women's basketball Final Four in 2013. He averaged 16.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.8 assists as a senior.
quote:
Clarendon said that whenever he ran out of the tunnel and saw signs from fans who were members of the LGBTQIA+ community, he always felt special. Same with fans who bought his jersey because of what he represented.

A man in a skirt and bra in an all female league and it only makes the all-star team 1 time.
It may love the sport but it’s not very good at it.

Circa 2020, Clarendon came out as non-binary.[42] Clarendon uses she/her, they/them and he/him pronouns.[43][44] In 2015, Clarendon identified as "black, gay, female, non-cisgender and Christian".[45] In 2021, Clarendon underwent chest masculinization surgery to remove breast tissue.
I can’t tell what the frick that thing is but luckily I realized I don’t care either, other than the trainwreck syndrome interest.
