When the NBA's East-West Regional Finals began, the less-concerned WNBA also began the regular season of the season. Although less popular than the NBA, the WNBA is still the most competitive league in women's basketball. The official U.S. basketball Instagram recently posted a photo of Phoenix Mercury player Diana Taurasi congratulating her on becoming the first player in WNBA history to score at least 7,500 points, 1,500 assists and 1,500 rebounds.
As a representative figure of the U.S. women's basketball team, Taurusi has been in the WNBA for 13 seasons. At the age of 34, she recently completed a contract extension with the Mercuries and will end her career in Phoenix.
However, The biggest recent good news for Taurasi is not the renewal of the contract, but the marriage to his girlfriend of many years, Penny Taylor. The two recently had a wedding in Phoenix.
"It was the most amazing and beautiful day of our lives." Tao Lexi said, "Being able to share our love with family and friends is the most important thing for us. ”
Petunia Taylor, 36, was a Mercury teammate with Taurusse, who together won three WNBA championships. After retiring last year, Taylor became mercury's head of player development. Interestingly, Taylor had previously been married, and her ex-husband was Brazilian volleyball player Rodriguez-Gill.
