Posted: 10/13/21 9:04 pm ::: Taurasi Talks Travel

A few things stood out to me.

Quote:

The rest of her Mercury teammates flew back to Phoenix on a flight that left Las Vegas at about 10 a.m. on Saturday. By time they landed, it was already early afternoon. The Mercury coaching staff spent Saturday cutting tape and preparing for Game 1 of the WNBA Finals against the Chicago Sky on Sunday, which meant the Mercury didn't get a practice day before the Finals, and only started watching film on Sunday morning.

Quote:

Taurasi rushed to the locker room to shower and board the plane with teammates Brittney Griner and Skylar Diggins-Smith.

Couldn't they have planned this for a better due date? Like after the season?

Quote:

Taylor was already two days past her due date when she was induced on Friday. She headed to the hospital before the start of the Mercury game, texting with Taurasi right up until Taurasi had to take the court.

Quote:

Taurasi slept at the hospital, which was located just north of downtown Phoenix, on Friday and Saturday night. She left the hospital at 7:30 a.m. Sunday to drive home to shower and get dressed, then drove right to the Footprint Center for Game 1 of the WNBA Finals.

Her expectations appear to exceed 99% of other Americans.
