Too many words to express my love and gratitude for ball. I’ve lived with knee pain daily for years, so it’s time to close this chapter of life. But, oh know it ends with much joy! Thank you to all of my people who have supported me thus far. Know the best is yet to come 🏀❤️
Seeing the refs at the pool drinking beers and listening to Earth, Wind, and Fire is like seeing your teacher outside of the classroom at the grocery store...it’s weird lol
Just want to brag on my sister real quick…She’s 35 still playing ELITE basketball while being a mom! It’s freakin hard to do what she does and she makes it look easy. So proud to be her lil sis. Can’t nobody tell me nothin about DB! 💙🧡
My grandma doesn’t have an iPhone so in group messages all she sees is “___ loved an image” so today I sent her my team picture and she typed “loved an image, proud grandma” I just love her so much lol 🥹❤️
Never thought I would be back at Stanford. Never thought I would coach. But here I am stepping into what God has called me to do. So hyped to be working again with some of my favorite people in the world! Okay go to go, I have a job to get back to 😉🌲❤️
Just signed the lease to my new apartment. I’m adulting y’all 😅 In the WNBA and overseas everything was fully furnished so I never had to worry about choosing the right bed lol s/o to my Stanford family for guiding me through this process. This community is so caring! Grateful🙏🏾
You impacted my life in the most positive way. I am so honored to have played for you and coach next to you. You are my forever GOAT, thank you Tara.
My coach always 🌲❤️
In my first college workout we did a pushup test and I got 4 😂…I didn’t know anything about strength or lifting. But last week, in the same weight room, I got 50 💪🏾😁 S/o to my girls for cheering me on every rep. I love y’all!!! 🌲❤️

Somewhere in Bakersfield my dad is jumping for joy he doesn’t have to see me and my sister compete in a single elimination game against each other. Thank you Shey Peddy Lol
Win 900 was freshman year and win 1000 was senior year. Both times I was equally amazed with Tara’s greatness (hence the identical reaction in the pics lol) This year I’m not there to celebrate another milestone in person, but as always I am forever proud to call her my coach ❤️
This is an old clip, but this pretty much describes my dad’s mood today with both of his daughters making it to the Semi’s of the WNBA Championship. 😂 Enjoy
-Test positive for Covid in October ✅
-Partially tears right calf a week after coming back from Covid ✅
-Out 74 days from ball ✅
-Jumps over half my height exactly a week after I come back ✅✅
Don’t ever tell me God isn’t good! 💪🏾🙏🏾😁
Got the opportunity to honor my grandparents Clark and Gloria Mitchell in my last game. They are the cornerstone of my family and inspire me tremendously. Yesterday I played for the name on the back of my jersey, and it indeed was a pleasure 🙏🏾❤️
I went through the trenchessss this summer yall, but I’ll save that story for another day. Until then just know I am so grateful to be playing this game 😁🏀

More Fun Facts: In 2017 our Stanford team met Ciara after a game. We really wanted to take a picture with a celebrity so we asked the kindest man to take it for us.
That man was Russell Wilson.
An hour before the WNBA draft me and
@swiesebaby24
, who was my draft roommate, tried to memorize all 12 head coaches names of the league so we could be prepared for interviews after we were drafted lol
Woke up to a bracket group of 400+ Eye am shooketh, WBB fans are the best! The Erica McCall Callenge might be one of the biggest Women’s tournament group in the nation 😁🙌🏾
Just want to say, as Covid numbers go up, that I appreciate all the nurses, doctors, first responders, etc. that are going in to the battle field everyday and fighting this virus head on. Your work doesn’t go unnoticed. 🙏🏾
So excited to announce my new podcast Bird’s Eye View, presented by the
@thedccrossover
I’m bringing you behind the scenes info about every aspect of overseas ball 🤩 I’ll be interviewing your favorite athletes about their experiences. Tune in next Tuesday for the first episode!
Thank you to Coach Reeves for giving me an opportunity to be apart of something special last season. Of course thank you to my teammates that accepted me so graciously. And thank you to the fans that supported me from the jump. Truly grateful for my time with the Lynx 🙏🏾
One of my players wanted some clips that demonstrate lock down defense so of course I pulled some

film. She left motivated! Thank you two for inspiring the younger generation 🙏🏾🏀
Is this mic on? The PAC-12 is the best wbb conference in the country‼️
-Stanford has to play 4 ranked teams in a row. Cal has 5.
-What other conference has 50% of their teams ranked?
Two of those teams are in the the top 5!
Okay point made 🎤
So all these teams that are supposed to have watch parties to celebrate their team making the tournament, are just canceled? Will teams still be shown celebrating? Lol half of a team may not be able to make it because they’ll be in class. Lord have mercy...ESPN y’all had 1 job 🤦🏾♀️
Yet another milestone in a legendary career 🐐
And now 3️⃣ wins away from passing Coach K (1,202) to become the winningest coach in college basketball history (men’s or women’s).

Just came from the doctor and found out I grew an inch…eye can’t not believe this lol I’m going to be mad I retired if I find out my knee pain was growing pain the whole time 😂😂
