WNBA great Diana Taurasi roasted Draymond Green during 2016 Olympics: report

Diana Taurasi, the all-time leading scorer in the WNBA, is known for her incredible skills on the court. However, one of her most memorable moments may have come off the court during the 2016 Rio Olympics. According to a report by Time magazine, Taurasi took a playful jab at Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green, asking him, “How does it feel to be the only person in this room who’s never been double-teamed?”

The comment was a light-hearted dig at Green’s offensive skills, as he is more known for his defensive prowess and outspoken personality. Throughout his 13-year career, Green has averaged just 8.7 points per game, making him an easy target for Taurasi’s witty remark.

Taurasi, who recently announced her retirement after 20 seasons in the WNBA, has had an illustrious career. She won three WNBA titles, was named the league MVP in 2009, and has an impressive collection of accolades, including two Finals MVPs, five scoring titles, and multiple All-WNBA and All-Star selections. Taurasi spent her entire career with the Phoenix Mercury, a rare feat in professional sports.

In addition to her WNBA success, Taurasi is also the most decorated Olympic basketball player, with six gold medals to her name. Before turning pro, she helped lead the University of Connecticut to three national championships and was named the AP Player of the Year in the 2002-03 season.

Taurasi’s legacy as a basketball icon is secure, and her retirement marks the end of an era in women’s basketball. Her impact on the sport will be felt for years to come, and her competitive spirit and leadership will be sorely missed on the court.

As we bid farewell to a basketball legend, we can only look back on Diana Taurasi’s remarkable career with admiration and appreciation for all she has accomplished. Her dunk on Draymond Green may have been a joke, but her legacy as one of the greatest players in WNBA history is no laughing matter.
