Sue Bird ended her legendary basketball career Tuesday night after the Seattle Storm fell to the Las Vegas Aces, 97-92, in Game 4 of the WNBA semifinals.
“I don't think anyone on planet Earth can guard her,” Seattle coach Noelle Quinn said. “She was unconscious.”
Breanna Stewart tied the WNBA playoff record with 42 points, just the fifth player to score 40 or more in a postseason game, and Jewell Loyd added 29. But Seattle failed to find a third scorer and the Aces had an answer for every charge Seattle made after Las Vegas surged in front early in the second half.
“It’s been my honor to play for this franchise, to play for these fans. I don’t know what else to say,” Bird said.
