The truth is finally coming out about Julie Tetart and the talk of playing in the WNBA.
6-foot-3 Julie Tetart is a French center playing for Monaco, who has turned heads after putting up absurd stat lines like 20-plus points and 20 rebounds a night.

Rumors circulated online that she officially entered the WNBA Draft, but that isn't true. But she's yet to fully address that specific rumours.
The one thing she has admitted is that playing in the WNBA is a childhood dream she wouldn't turn down. However, the league could easily shut that down with a simple change in eligibility definition.
Sara Crudo dismisses talk of Julie Tetart in the WNBA
Royce White finds himself in the middle of the transgender debate , taking up the identity of Royshia and wearing wigs to WNBA games to try and make a point.
His latest move? Bringing former Monaco forward Sara Crudo onto his YouTube channel—a player who spent time sharing the court with Julie Tetart.

Asking Crudo directly about the WNBA rumours, she said:
"You can tell on social media everyone sees and I don't know why they are spreading this fake news as well that she will play in the WNBA.
"But actually she had an interview where she said, 'Okay. If one day they call me, I will go.' But how do you think you can compete against a WNBA player? And not to be rude with Julie because I don't want to be rude once again, but why do you have such a fuss. It's just because she wants to take the attention."
As is the case with most of the Enes Kanter and Royce White chatter, it seems as if Tetart's comments on the WNBA are just to raise her profile.

In reality, there's an almost zero percent chance that Tetart gets to play in the WNBA.
