Liberty Induct Becky Hammon Into Ring Of Honor


Becky Hammon has had quite the summer. San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich entrusted  NBA Summer League head coaching duties on Hammon, making her the first female head coach in NBA Summer League history.

If the story were to end there it’d still be one of the most significant storylines of the year. But Hammon and the Spurs weren’t satisfied with just an appearance in Summer League. No, they wanted to take home the championship.

And they did. Hammon guided the Spurs to the Summer League title in a win over the Phoenix Suns. Since then Hammon has rightly received much laud.

On Sunday, she was recognized once again for her contributions – this time on the court. The New York Liberty inducted Hammon into their Ring of Honor, a recognition bestowed on players “who have made the most significant contributions to the Liberty’s tradition of excellence and to the growth of the WNBA.”
