For Brittney Griner, this WNBA season has and will continue to feature plenty of long-awaited firsts. When she took the court for Phoenix Mercury's matchup with the Dallas Wings on Wednesday, the 32-year-old checked a special one off the list.

After the loss, Griner told reporters that"the love" she felt when she took the court was touching."This game meant a lot," Griner said."I really wanted to get this [win]. We've got another shot at them in another day."

When her time there ended, she had a falling out with now-LSU head coach Kim Mulkey. When Mulkey was still head coach at Baylor, she insisted that Griner's No. 42 jersey couldn't hang in the rafters until she earned a degree. "That's the goal," she said."We're opening a new arena. There's no doubt that I want to see her jersey in the rafters."
