Tina Charles, the WNBAs all-time leading rebounder and eight-time All-Star, announced her retirement after a fifteen-year career. Drafted first by the Connecticut Sun in 2010, she earned rookie of the year honors and later won MVP in 2012. Charles played for several teams, including the New York Liberty, and returned to Connecticut in 2020. She never won the WNBA Finals but left a lasting impact through her on-court dominance and off-court community involvement. Charles founded the Hopeys Heart Foundation to fight sudden cardiac arrest and won the Dawn Staley Community Leadership Award twice. She will be remembered for her excellence beyond just her impressive statistics. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
