This piece for Golden State of Mind focuses on Dario Šarić's performance on the Warriors' 2023 LGBTQ+ Night and why representation for marginalized and underrepresented groups matters in the men's pro sports world.

A narrative piece discussing basketball, grief, class, fandom, reanimation, and resurrection through the lens of one girl having a very interesting night at a Golden State Warriors game.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Leviya! I'm a writer, researcher, and content creator. My content focuses on intersectional feminism, fandom sociology, and player empowerment across the sports world. I am a proud fangirl who absolutely loves the NBA. I hope to make a difference in both the sports media world and sports fandom at large through my work.You might know me better as that one Dario Šarić stan, though -- plus, I'm a Philly 5/5 (6/6 when we get a WNBA team) who grew up in and around sports. With my six-year detour into music blogging, I have a lot of experience in different types of fandoms, and always bring this piece of me into the sports content I work on.In addition to writing, podcasting, video, and social media, I also have experience making graphics and edits. I've also worked in public relations before and know my stuff when it comes to communication! In addition to all of this, I also occasionally like to dip into investigative journalism, and helped uncover a food safety fiasco at my university in my junior year.My résumé is available via email or direct message.Thanks for checking out my work!
