30 for 30: Breakaway (Maya Moore's story)

[Millenial23]

Did anyone else see the 30 for 30 episode last night about Maya Moore and Jonathan Irons?! It was so good, she is such an inspiration and brings so much goodness to this world! Everything she does comes from the heart. <3

I did. It's a great story and it was cool to see MM in her home element. And boy, she can sing!

It's also a testament to her family upbringing. How connected her family are really stood out to me. The impact it's having on the scale that it is, is so valuable.

When Jonathan said he'd go through everything again if it meant he'd be married to Maya. Man...................that got me.

She is, without a doubt, one of a kind. Love you Maya.

Yes, it was a very enjoyable show.

 

[DocStressor]

That was a wonderful show. Now I can understand, given her family and the kind of person she is, how she could step away from an amazing basketball career. Best wishes for their future.

Excellent documentary.

Maya is the full package. The personification of grace, humility, dignity, purposefulness. The kind of person that makes everyone around her better.

Hearing some amazing things about Maya Moore's 30 For 30

I missed it. I will have to see if it is on ESPN+ later tonight.

 

[BballFan]

Excellent and truly speaks to her character.

 

[JellyBean]

Yes! Finally got the chance to watch this 30 for 30. Fantastic work, ESPN!! Bless you, Maya Moore.

Beautifully done.

Leaving Reggie at the hotel reminded me of the time the UConn team once left a restaurant without Maya. It was a road game against Louisville and the team ate dinner at a local restaurant the night before the game. They met Muhammad Ali at the restaurant and Maya was still talking to him when the team bus left to head back to the hotel -- without Maya. The team had quite a laugh about leaving their best player behind. A NY Times reported described her this way:

Moore is 150-3 in her brilliant UConn career. Yet her natural introspection does not make her a conventional leader. She can be so unassuming that the team forgot her when leaving a restaurant last season in Louisville.

She hasn't changed.
