Phoenix honored Diana Taurasi with a soaring tribute, retiring her No. 3 jersey after a 20-year reign as the WNBA’s all-time leading scorer and a three-time champion. The city celebrated her legacy with murals, refurbished courts, and even a street named “10646 Taurasi Way” — a nod to her historic 10,646 career points. Taurasi, reflecting on the emotional weight of the moment, described it as both a funeral and a celebration — a fitting farewell to a legend. Surrounded by icons like Michael Phelps and Brittney Griner, she delivered a heartfelt, 30-minute speech that captured her journey from competitor to icon, blending humor, gratitude, and pride. This wasn’t just a ceremony — it was a full-circle moment for a true GOAT who shaped Phoenix and the game forever.
