WNBA legends Sue Bird and Sylvia Fowles lead 2025 Women's Basketball Hall of Fame class

(AP) — WNBA greats Sue Bird, Sylvia Fowles, Cappie Pondexter, and Alana Beard headline the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2025 which was announced Friday.

Also inducted on June 14 will be Mark Campbell, the longtime Union University coach, as well as Lucille Kyvallos, who led West Chester College and Queens College to early success. Women's Basketball Coaches Association executive director Danielle Donehew completes the class.

“We are honored to pay tribute to seven distinguished legends of this exceptional sport,” WBHOF President Dana Hart said. “They exemplify the highest standards in women’s basketball and have made substantial contributions to the sport along with shaping the game's historical trajectory.”

Bird has won at every level, including five Olympic gold medals, four WNBA championships with Seattle, and two NCAA titles while at UConn.
