Seimone Augustus retires from the WNBA

Apparently she’s going to be an assistant coach on the sparks staff

Everytime I see a thread about the WNBA, I remember there is a WNBA.

And then I forget again.

But, SA was a great Tiger, regardless.

One of the best ever in the women’s game, without her the 5 Final fours do not happen, Sue got her..both HOF’s...

agreed. Look, I’m happy that any former LSU player succeeds after they leave here, but is there actually anyone that watches a single second of the WNBA? The NBA heavily subsidizes it, for political reasons, but there can’t be much, if any, actual fan interest in the product.

I have attended 1 WNBA game in my life when I was in Minnesota Seimone's Rookie year because my dad was a huge fan.

Stayed for the 1st half...had great seats...called my mom and I was that a-hole sitting mid court and waving at the camera. She saw me .

One of the 10 best women players ever

The only thing I know about the WNBA is that Bill liambeer was a coach at one time.

I actually refereed many of her games as a youngster. I knew she was good but that flat shot of hers was going to hold her back . She proved me wrong. But it is flattest shot I’ve ever seen someone perfect. Congrats to her.

Phenomenal player and career, both college and pros.

I remember her being one of the few/only WBB basketball players who could legit hang with myself (average bb skills, above average athlete) and most of the mens pick-up players in the rec. Not saying she could hang with college level mens players, she couldn't. But if you were an average to good pick-up guy and you had to guard Seimone you had to be ready to play or she could eat you up.
