Virtus Bologna forward Matt Walsh has taken to Twitter to voice a rather “sexist” view on WNBA legend and former Olympic bronze-medallist Becky Hammon’s appointment at the San Antonio Spurs.
Hammon was appointed as a team assistant of the NBA champions on Tuesday evening and it grabbed Walsh’s attention almost right away.

I feel like Jessie Spano just called me a "macho pig". Men's bball and women's bball two totally different sports. No offense intended
