Becky Hammon is a busy woman.

Fresh off of leading the Las Vegas Aces to a WNBA championship in her rookie season as head coach, Hammon has a new job. Starting in December, she'll join ESPN as a studio analyst. Hammon will contribute to ESPN's catalog of studio shows including "SportsCenter," "Get Up," "First Take" and "NBA Today," the network announced on Wednesday. Her focus will be on the NBA.

Don't worry, Aces fans. She's not leaving her day job. This appears to be an offseason gig.

A three-time All-American guard at Colorado State, Hammon played 16 seasons in the WNBA from 1999-2014.
