Hammon has been part of the Spurs coaching staff since 2007. Prior to her coaching career, she had a 16-year playing career for the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), splitting that time between the New York Liberty and the San Antonio Stars. She was a six-time All-Star in the league.
She was also selected as one of the WNBA’s Top 20@20, marking her one of the most influential athletes to play in the league’s two-decade history.
Regarding the dynamic between her and her players, Hammon says there have been no issues as a woman coaching men.
“It’s my job to go in there and be focused for those guys and make sure I m helping them do the things that will help us win,” she said. “They give me great eye contact, they give me great focus, they give me great energy, and I just want to make sure I give it all back to them.”

Synopsis

Pierre Cardin had been among The Fine Arts Academy s illustrious members since 1992.
PARIS: Pierre Cardin, the French designer whose famous name embossed myriad consumer products after his iconic Space Age styles shot him into the fashion stratosphere in the 1960s, has died, the French Academy of Fine Arts said Tuesday. He was 98.
A licensing maverick, Cardins name embossed thousands of products from wristwatches to bed sheets, and in the brands heyday in the 1970s and 80s, goods bearing his fancy cursive signature were sold at some 100,000 outlets worldwide.
That number dwindled dramatically in later years, as his products were increasingly regarded as cheaply made and his clothing - which, decades later, remained virtually unchanged from its 60s-era styles - felt almost laughably dated.
