Former Spurs assistant has proven she can win as a head coach as well
Riquna Williams of the Las Vegas Aces celebrates with head coach Becky Hammon after defeating the Connecticut Sun 78-71 in game four to win the 2022 WNBA Finals at Mohegan Sun Arena on September 18, 2022 in Uncasville, Connecticut.It didn’t take long for Becky Hammon’s future to became a hot topic after she coached the Las Vegas Aces to a WNBA championship on Sunday.
After starring at Colorado State as a three-time All-American, Hammon heard skeptics say she wouldn’t succeed in the WNBA as an undrafted rookie. Sixteen seasons later, including six as an All-Star, there was talk about whether she could cut it as one of Gregg Popovich’s assistants after she joined the Spurs.
"Winning a championship is a remarkable achievement for a first-time head coach in her first year with a team. Yet I am not at all surprised by her success."
