- Two-time Olympic gold medalist retires from basketball
- Parker, 38, won WNBA titles with LA, Chicago and Vegas
Three-time WNBA champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist Candace Parker announced Sunday she’s retiring after 16 seasons.
“I promised I’d never cheat the game & that I’d leave it in a better place than I came into it,” Parker wrote in a social media post. “The competitor in me always wants 1 more, but it’s time. My HEART & body knew, but I needed to give my mind time to accept it.”
