Diana Taurasi Addressed Olympics Future With Hilarious One-Liner

Diana Taurasi is set to head to Paris this week for her sixth Olympic games with Team USA. It's an astounding milestone for any athlete to reach and one made all the more impressive by her impeccable record in international appearances. Taurasi has won gold in every Olympics she's participated in so far, and has an excellent chance to earn her sixth over the next month.

It is also very likely to be the last Games for the 42-year-old, an idea made reality on Monday. Asked by WNBA reporter Richard Cohen if there was any chance fans would see her in Los Angeles for the 2028 Olympics, Taurasi delivered a hilarious one-liner that all but cemented Paris as her final Olympics.
