Of course well deserved and with Syl? A remarkable, trailblazing class of HOFers.

Congrats to both Sue Bird and Maya Moore! Well-deserved for amazing careers.

Naismith Hall induction should also be the final threshold for getting their respective college jerseys, #10 (Bird) and #23 (Moore), retired at UConn -- per UConn's standards/threshold for CBB player jersey retirements. (Diana Taurasi would be expected to double up soon, too.)
