Las Vegas Aces center Liz Cambage hit out at Connecticut Sun head coach Curt Miller with a racial jibe after he exaggerated her weight during an argument with officials on Sunday.
Cambage, a towering Australian who ranks among the WNBA's most visible stars, posted a recording of herself on social media in which she claimed Miller encouraged an official to call a foul against her while saying, 'C'mon, she's 300 pounds.'
Miller, who has issued an apology to Cambage, has since been fined $10,000 and has been suspended for one game. He'll serve it tomorrow when the Sun play the Seattle Storm.

So something went down in today's game. I don't need to speak on it because if there's one thing
about me is that I will never let a man disrespect me. Ever. Ever. Ever. Especially a little white.
Coach of Connecticut. I'm sorry little sir man. I do not know your name.
But the next time you try to call out a referee, you know, trying to get a call being like,
come on, she's 300 pounds. I'm gonna need you to get it right, baby. Cause I'm 6'8". I'm weighing,
I just double checked. Cause I love to be correct and get facts. I'm weighing 235 pounds and
I'm very proud of being a big bitch. Big buddy. Big Ben's baby. So don't ever try to disrespect
me or another woman in the league. I don't know if that's how like coaches run. Like you just
you try to disrespect women like that from the sideline. And you so lucky it was during a game.
That whole part, you were so lucky that I was at my, doing my job. So anyway, to that little man,
like the whole little tiny, like, where is you? Stop trying to project your insecurities, baby.
Pick up the phone, call the psych. Cause you projecting some bullshit right now.
Um, and next time you try to disrespect me, remember I'm 235. It might seem like 300 pounds
to your little ass. I'm 235. I do have to say one more thing. And I know the big difference
between players and players. Like talking ---- on the court before a coach for another team
to be yelling like protected abuse. Cause we can't do nothing bad. It's just crazy to me.
And I'd be talking a lot and I didn't even say nothing tonight. That's crazy, bro.
