context_page_description: Erin Victoria Phillips is an Australian former professional basketball player and an Australian rules footballer for Adelaide. She played nine seasons in the Women's National Basketball Association for five different teams and is a two-time WNBA champion. She also represented Australia on the women's national basketball team, winning a gold medal at the 2006 FIBA World Championship for Women and serving as a co-vice captain at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Additionally, Phillips has played four seasons in the AFL Women's competition, in which she is a two-time premiership player and two-time league best and fairest.
  Phillips's father Greg played professional Australian rules football for Port Adelaide, where he won eight premierships and earned an induction into the Australian Football Hall of Fame. Phillips only played Australian rules football up until age 13 before switching to basketball because of the lack of professional opportunities for female footballers at the time.
