All-time women's basketball great Candace Parker announced her retirement on social media Sunday, marking the end of a career for one of the sport's best players and, for nearly two decades, one of the faces of the game.

"I promised I'd never cheat the game & that I'd leave it in a better place than I came into it," Parker posted to Instagram. "The competitor in me always wants 1 more, but it's time. My HEART & body knew, but I needed to give my mind time to accept it."
