After years of speculation since she last stepped on a basketball court with the Minnesota Lynx in 2018, one of the WNBA’s all-time greatest players has officially decided to hang up her shoes.
On Monday, Lynx legend Maya Moore announced her retirement from the Lynx and the WNBA after eight seasons as a professional. Following the 2018 season, Moore announced she would step away from basketball while focusing on social justice initiatives and other interests off the court, notably helping free her now-husband Jonathan Irons, who was wrongfully convicted of burglary and assault charges.
