The Toronto Tempo introduce two new mascots during their game against the Indiana Fever at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. The team reveals Dot, an arctic hare, and Dez, a snapping turtle, introducing both characters as the franchise’s official mascots.
City News Toronto and Yahoo Sports both report that the mascots are unveiled at halftime, making the announcement during the live WNBA game in front of fans. The outlets describe the mascots using the same animal-based theme—hare and turtle—though they differ slightly in how they present the mascots’ names and specific species details. Both accounts frame the reveal as a team branding moment for the lone Canadian WNBA franchise.
