I think it was really neat for some of the kids because they don't get to meet professional sports figures in person very often. It was awesome for the kids to meet a Katie Smith or a Lisa Leslie . Also, I had a real good time getting to know the other players from around the league. There was a lot of trash talking between the two sides. Everyone from boys and girls to men and women all try imitating professional athletes.
People hear and see everything.
WNBA players provide great female role models for children and adults. Hopefully, players realize how much they're in the spotlight. Everyone sees what they do and wants to follow their lead. Well, it starts with myself and a Lynx player conducting about a one hour basketball clinic. After the clinic, we give the children a Christian lesson and a personal testimony.
