“You play better when you’re smiling, Bennet,” she said after practice one day.

She bumped her shoulder into mine. It was harmless—until it wasn’t.

@BasketBreakdown:

The players look greedy af rn. League won’t last if they keep pushing. #LeagueInDanger #BadLook

@CourtSideDrama:

Eva Montgomery leading negotiations?? Worst choice ever. She can’t even stay healthy. #UnionMess #BadPick

@HoopsHotTea:

Eva thinks she’s a businesswoman now? Girl, focus on walking without crutches first. #CloutChaser #Overrated

@CourtVisionQueen:

Wild how asking for FAIR PAY = “greedy.” Pay the women. Period. #SupportThePlayers #FairGame

@FanOnTheSidelines:

Players crying poor again Y’all knew the salary before signing. #Ungrateful #JustPlay

@FullCourtShady:

Union really put Eva in charge? LMAO. They picked Instagram likes over experience. #PRStunt #FakeLeader

@WBBallUpdates:

This is history in the making. Women athletes demanding what they deserve. #StandWithThePlayers #CBA

@LexEvaForever:

Eva’s the perfect rep — young, passionate, and already changing the conversation. #ProudFan #TeamEva

@BenchWarmersUnite:

These players swear they deserve NBA money when they can’t even fill arenas. #BeSerious #Delusional

@DramaInThePaint:

Montgomery negotiating?? That’s comedy. She’s a rookie with no track record. #BenchBoss #SusChoice

@FastBreakFanatic:

Owners making record profits but players can’t even get by? #DoBetter #PayThem

@MiamiHeatCheck:

Eva’s got the charisma. People outside the league actually LISTEN when she talks. That matters. #UnionStrong

@BBallBuzz:

Eva’s name in the headlines AGAIN This whole thing feels like another way to keep her relevant. #AttentionSeeker #DramaMagnet

@ChiTownFaithful:

Eva Montgomery as the union rep?? W pick. She’s smart, fearless, and speaks for the players #LeaderEnergy #GoEva
