The Storm announced on Thursday that the franchise will retire Sue Bird’s No. 10 jersey on June 11 when the team faces the Mystics.
Bird retired at the age of 41 after 20 seasons in the WNBA last year. Her jersey will be the second one retired by the Storm, followed behind her former teammate Lauren Jackson’s No. 15.
Bird is known as one of the best WNBA players of all-time. She finished her career as the winningest player in WNBA history. She has four WNBA titles, earned a record 13 All-Star spots and was named to the All-WNBA first team five times and the second team three times. Additionally, Bird was listed on the WNBA’s 10th, 15th, 20th and 25th anniversary teams.
