To the rafters she goes! 💜💛
•
Today, the Los Angeles Sparks retired Candace Parker’s legendary No. 3 jersey, honouring one of the most dominant, versatile, and trailblazing athletes in WNBA history. 🔥
•
From winning both Rookie of the Year and MVP in her debut season to capturing three championships with three different teams, CP3 didn’t just play the game, she changed it. 💪
•
A 2x league MVP, Finals MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, and top-10 all-time in points, rebounds, assists and blocks, her résumé speaks for itself. 👏
•
But beyond the stats and the accolades, Parker has been a force for women’s empowerment, a voice in sports media, and an inspiration to the next generation. 🤩
•
From Tennessee titles under Pat Summitt to 13 seasons leading the Sparks, today, her No. 3 takes its rightful place in the rafters. 🥹
•
A career for the history books. A legacy that will live on forever. ⭐
