WNBA legend Diana Taurasi still has competitive fire heading into 18th pro season

As Diana Taurasi prepares for the 18th season of her WNBA career, she finds herself in learning mode.

The former UConn star is under a new head coaching staff and system with the Phoenix Mercury in 2022, also surrounded by several new players, such as Diamond DeShields and fellow former Husky Tina Charles.

“That’s the beauty of every new season,” Taurasi said on Monday. “It’s a new cast of teammates, of coaches this year. And every year is different. You can use past experiences to kind of help you get through training camp and the ebbs and flows of it, but it’s all new, and you kind of just come into it like a rookie and try to learn everything, try to take it all in and try to apply it on the court.”
