A little more than a year ago, Maya Moore, one of the most successful basketball players in history, announced she was taking a hiatus from the WNBA.
Just 30 years old at the time and coming off her sixth All-Star appearance after eight years in the league, her reasons for doing so were extraordinary: Moore cited a desire to focus on her faith, her family, and the case of one man, Jonathan Irons, whom she and others believe has been wrongfully imprisoned for decades.
On Monday, Irons and Moore got a big win.
