It sure seems like Diana Taurasi has played her final season with the Phoenix Mercury. If DT is retiring, Phoenix might be preparing just in case.
Diana Taurasi owes us no explanation about what she will do with her WNBA career. It will be on her terms whenever she walks away. However, it seems like this could be her last ride because, per Spotrac, she’s *technically* an unrestricted free agent next season. Also, Phoenix recently unveiled a pretty stellar campaign paying tribute to her illustrious career.
It started with a tweet a few weeks back touting final chances for fans to see her play at home. Furthermore, it now includes a thank you video with her wife and the voices of players central to her career, like Brittney Griner. Here’s that awesome video with so many cool DT moments.
Dear Dee –
Love,

Again, it’s unclear whether this is actually it for Taurasi. But here are nine other times the Mercury hinted that it could be:
The Greatest of All-Time. perioDT.
