Lisa Leslie put the WNBA on her back when she was at her best. Before her, there weren’t many stars from the league that drew attention from basketball fans. Thankfully, the league started to get more marketable players to pick up where Leslie left off.
No matter if she was playing on the court or just out in public, Leslie is a standup citizen. She’s a positive role model for young girls everywhere and especially her daughter. Bringing her daughter Lauren to press conferences felt natural to Leslie.
