    Alyssa Thomas discussed the Connecticut Sun's decision to recognize her contributions later this season.

    Yeah, I spent 11 years of my career there. If you didn't play there, you don't understand Connecticut and what it meant to play there. So I'm just super honored to be honored by such a great franchise. Like I said, I gave my whole career to that franchise. So I'm just excited for the opportunity and the value that they have in me.
