    16-year WNBA career that included six All-Star nods and two All-WNBA First Team selections. What followed remains an ever-increasing list of coaching firsts for the 46-year old:

    • First full-time female assistant coach in NBA history.

    • First female head coach in NBA Summer League, where she’d be crowned champion.

    • First woman to serve as part of an All-Star coaching staff.

    • First female acting head coach in NBA history, taking over for Popovich after his ejection on Dec. 30, 2020.

    • First rookie coach to capture a WNBA championship in 2022 with the Las Vegas Aces’ 3-1 win against the Connecticut Sun, shortly after Hammon seized Coach of the Year honors.

    Last I heard she was on everyone’s shit list for poor behavior in the WNBA. I guess that has kind of blown over. Not that it was going to delay her HOF induction.

    Wasn’t there some controversy that just happened with her, like last month or something? With a player who was pregnant?

    Pop truly is a one of a kind coach. I hated the Spurs when I was growing up but then later realized how great of a franchise they are with players like Tim, Manu to coaches like Pop. Love to see moments like these.

    Becky earned a headcoaching gig at NBA. not am not saying someone has to show up and give her a job, owners pick whoever they want, but she is qualified.

    I truly hope Pop is happy. He deserves this.
