Hawkins is averaging 7.4 points and 5.1 rebounds per game this season for the Mystics and is in her 10th season in the league.
With WNBA playoff races heating up, Scripps News sat down with Washington Mystics forward Tianna Hawkins to talk about the season so far, how Brittney Griner’s detention and return affect her decisions to play abroad in the offseason, and how she balances motherhood with pro basketball.
Through Thursday, the Mystics are sixth in the 12-team WNBA and sit four games behind the New York Liberty for the Eastern Conference lead.Hawkins has taken on a larger role for the Mystics in recent games as injuries have forced the team to change its lineup. The Mystics' two leading scorers, Elena Delle Donne and Shakira Austin, are currently sidelined with injuries.
The WNBA's collective bargaining agreement allows salaries to range between $62,285 and $234,936 per year, but the league told Scripps News that players can make over $750,000 when factoring in potential bonuses, marketing deals and the prize pool from the in-season Commissioner's Cup tournament. Hawkins, who has played abroad in countries including Hungary, France, and Australia, said she would still play abroad, albeit with conditions.
