Phoenix Mercury Star and Retired Pro Basketball Player Announce Birth of Baby Girl
After securing a spot in the WNBA finals, Phoenix Mercury star Diana Taurasi and wife Penny Taylor welcomed their second child early Saturday morning.
A Special Delivery
The couple, who were married in 2017, already have a son, Leo. Taurasi was able to make it back home in time to be present for the birth, which occurred shortly after the Mercury's victory over the Las Vegas Aces.
"It's an amazing feeling," Taurasi said in a statement. "We're so grateful to have another healthy baby girl in our lives."
A Moment of Joy
Taylor, who retired from professional basketball in 2016, expressed her joy and gratitude on social media. "Our hearts are so full," she wrote alongside a photo of the newborn.
Balancing Basketball and Family
Taurasi, a three-time Olympic gold medalist and 10-time WNBA All-Star, has been open about her desire to balance her basketball career with her family life. The birth of her second child adds another layer of complexity to this balancing act, but it is a challenge she is undoubtedly up for.
The couple's announcement was met with well wishes and congratulations from fans, teammates, and fellow athletes. The birth of their daughter is a testament to the strength and love that exists within their family.
