Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3026374, member: 5798"] I don't know. I replying to the comments that I'm reading here in the yard. I'm taking for granted that those that have already commented here (5 pages worth) know more about this than I do. If she does want to leave, will they accommodate her and trade her, or refuse her "wishes", [B]and force her to pursue other courses of action?[/B] My reply is to what I've read here in the yard, and assume there is some truth to the substance of their narratives. If they are wrong or off base, then so am I. I'm like [B]Will Rogers[/B] in this case, "All I know is what I read in the newspapers" (Boneyard). I'm [B]not[/B] getting or hearing anything (news or reports) out here on the west coast about Maya and her wishes for the coming season. Wbbfan1's post is the first I've heard of Maya wanting out out Minnesota. [B]THIS JUST IN............................This was posted in the courant a moment ago.[/B] It looks as though there is some truth to their comments.

Maya Moore will take the year off from professional basketball, the former UConn star announced Tuesday in an [URL='https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/maya-moore-wnba-announcement']essay on The Players' Tribune website[/URL]. “I learned a long time ago that my purpose is to know Jesus and to make Him known,” Moore wrote. “My focus in 2019 will not be on professional basketball, but will instead be on the people in my family, as well as on investing my time in some ministry dreams that have been stirring in my heart for many years." Moore wrote that she will miss seeing her teammates every day but looks forward to focusing on family and faith. Moore has spent eight seasons with the Minnesota Lynx, earning five first-team all-WNBA honors and winning four league titles. She has typically spent the WNBA offseason playing overseas, most recently for UMMC Ekaterinburg of the Russian Premier League. [B]Update -[/B] Per a report on ESPN SportsCenter this morning (Feb 6), Maya signed a new contract with the Lynx just prior to her announcement. This puts to rest any speculation about her wanting out of Minnesota. [/QUOTE]
