As a lifelong basketball fanatic, Candace Parker dreamed of having her own shoe line or being on the cover of a sports video game.
Well, the latter has come true for the 35-year-old WNBA legend when it was announced on Wednesday, July 13, 2021, that she is gracing the cover of the ultra-popular NBA 2K video game.

Virginia women’s basketball had past and future representatives on opposite sidelines in Wednesday night’s WNBA All-Star game as current head coach Tina Thompson squared off against Wahoo legend Dawn Staley. Thompson, alongside Lisa Leslie, coached the WNBA All-Stars, while Staley carried out her role as the US Women’s National Team coach.
Thompson has been the head coach of the Cavaliers since 2018, coming to Charlottesville by way of the University of Texas. Her WNBA career is an illustrious one, spanning from 1997 until 2013, and Thompson was the No. 1 overall pick in the inaugural WNBA Draft in 1997. Thompson is a four-time WNBA Champion, winning the title every year from 1997-2000. Her on-the-court performance led to Thompson being selected as a member of the 2018 class of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, and she also has two gold medals from the 2004 and 2008 Olympics.
