Video: Maya Moore’s jersey retired by Lynx; WNBA icon gets custom jacket, gold shoes | News, scores, highlights, stats and rumors

On Saturday, several of Moore’s Lynx teammates were on hand and spoke highly of the Minnesota legend.

“You brought out the best in all of us, that’s how special you are,” Brunson said of Moore.

Sylvia Fowles, who played with Moore from 2015 to 2018, joked about how Moore “kept her own pace.”

“When we walked in here on the first day of practice, I mean you just got going,” Fowles said. “I was like, ‘How am I going to keep up with these girls? Maybe I did something wrong.’ But Maya was definitely the one going at her own pace, which is slow. You guys see her out here, dabbing and moving, but in the back, you’re not rushing Maya to do nothing.”

Moore had a legendary eight-year career in Minnesota, helping the Lynx to four WNBA championships and winning Finals MVP in 2013. She was the 2014 MVP and a six-time All-Star, winning All-Star Game MVP three times.

She led the league in steals in 2018, points in 2014 and was named to the WNBA All-First Team five times.

When she retired in 2018, it was only a matter of time before the Lynx retired her jersey. Now that day has finally arrived.
