Diana Taurasi is one of the most accomplished women's basketball players ever and on Sunday she added another notch to her belt. The Phoenix Mercury guard broke the WNBA scoring record Sunday, scoring the 7,489th point of her career, taking over the top stop from former WNBA All-Star Tina Thompson. “It’s pretty special when you pass Tina in anything, she’s been such an amazing player for the WNBA and just for basketball in general, she’s such an icon,” “And when you start thinking about you know more of the people that you’ve shared the court with, the coaches, the teams, you know I’ve been pretty lucky to be around a lot great players.” Taurasi, who is 35, has already won the WNBA three times, the MVP, the Finals MVP (twice), four Olympic gold medals and more.
