Transgender college basketball player Harriette Mackenzie has made claims of being at a disadvantage playing biological women.
The 21-year-old, who plays for Vancouver Island, leads the team in points, rebounds, and blocked shots. She broke five women’s records at Mount Royal University before leaving.
Still, Mackenzie has declared that the odds are stacked against her when she plays women, having put out a three-minute video in which she laments the way she is handled physically by opposing teams.
Mackenzie claimed to produce minimal testosterone, explaining her transition began in “kindergarten or first grade.”
“I’m playing at a major biological disadvantage,” she said in the video, shown below. “I never went through male puberty, I only went through female puberty.”
The player, who stands at 6ft 2in, accused Columbia Bible College players of playing her roughly during a recent game while their head coach, Taylor Claggett, applauded.
Harriette Mackenzie Is Concerned For Her Safety
Harriette Mackenzie is convinced that opposing teams want to injure her.
Her video includes footage of her being thrown to the floor by a CBC opponent and Claggett applauding.
A statement from CBC claimed Claggett was “speaking out for the safety of her players like any good coach would do.”
The coach also took to Instagram to state that the assertions were “simply untrue to who I am and what I believe as a person, a coach and a leader.”
The school said it supported their coaches in expressing legitimate concern for the safety of their players.
Meanwhile, all 13 players on the Vancouver Island squad have signed a letter addressed to the Pacific Western Athletic Association insisting they do not feel safe playing against CBC.
New Orleans Pelicans Stun The NBA By Trading Superstar Brandon Ingram To NBA Heavyweight In Blockbuster Trade Proposal

With the New Orleans Pelicans enduring another tremendously disappointing season, star big man Brandon Ingram is another name to follow in the trade rumor mill.
The Pelicans enter Thursday as the worst team in the Western Conference (5-22), with only the Washington Wizards (3-21) displaying an inferior record. It’s clear that a rebuild is necessary in NOLA, and that would start with trading core players like Brandon Ingram and/or Zion Williamson.
Svyatoslav Rovenchuk of Athlon Sports recently proposed a blockbuster trade idea that has New Orleans trading Ingram and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl to the powerhouse Golden State Warriors in exchange for Jonathan Kuminga, Gary Payton II, Kevon Looney and De’Anthony Melton:
“The swap allows the Warriors to add another All-Star caliber player around Curry. Meanwhile, the Pelicans land a worthwhile young prospect and a handful of expiring contracts. One could argue that Golden State would need to add some sort of draft pick compensation too, but given Ingram’s modest value, Kuminga may offer more than enough appeal to not have to do so.”
