ESPN anchor Elle Duncan went viral during this year's WNBA All-Star Game. That's because she unleashed a wild joke on national television.
Duncan has been with ESPN since May of 2016. While she's best known for her work on ⁘SportsCenter,⁘ there's no doubt fans also recognize her for her women's basketball coverage. If she's not covering the WNBA, she's helping ESPN put together the best possible package for the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament.
Last weekend, sports fans who weren't so familiar with Duncan learned that she doesn't have a filter. During ABC's halftime coverage of the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game, she made a fairly inappropriate joke while standing next to Andraya Carter and Chiney Ogwumike.
⁘We hope it gets a little bit more competitive,⁘ Duncan said. ⁘Because like a girls trip to Cancun, right now, there's no D.⁘
Countless people criticized Duncan for this joke. Some were so annoyed that they called for her job.
⁘Elle Duncan is one of the most unlikable individuals I've ever seen in sports media,⁘ one fan said.
During an appearance on ⁘The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz⁘ this week, Duncan commented on all the outrage over her Cancun joke.
ESPN's Elle Duncan Refuses To Apologize For 'Crude' Joke first appeared on The Spun on Jul 26, 2025
