Atlanta Dream guard Renee Montgomery says she is skipping the remainder of the 2020 WNBA season in order to pursue social justice reform.
"There's work to be done off the court in so many areas in our community," Montgomery tweeted on Thursday. "Social justice reform isn't going to happen overnight, but I do feel that now is the time and Moments equal Momentum. Let's keep it going!"
Montgomery will continue working her foundation to raise money for the Black Lives Matter movement. The 11-year veteran will also do speaking engagements in the Atlanta community, per ESPN's Mechelle Voepel.
