It’s time we join Megan Rapinoe and brag about Suzanne Brigit Bird.
Seattle Storm point guard Sue Bird is already the WNBA’s all-time assists leader and keeps moving up the bar. She’s now the record holder for most assists in a WNBA playoff game after dishing out 16 in Game 1 of the Finals. She had 10 in the first half alone, and broke her former record of 14 that was also reached by the Chicago Sky’s Courtney Vandersloot.
We’re sorry, Sue, but we have to add: Bird will turn 40 years old on Oct.
