Lauren Jackson

After ten years playing for the WNBL in Australia, Lauren Jackson played as a power forward and center for WNBA’s Seattle Storm for another 11 years. She also has nine medals—two gold—for the Olympics, World Championship, and Commonwealth Games. 

Considered one of the world’s best players, she was honored with the renaming of the Albury Sports Stadium. A series of injuries and surgeries led to her 2016 retirement. In 2020, she was inducted into both the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame and the Sport Australia Hall of Fame.
