Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Three-time All-Star and former WNBA champion Allie Quigley officially announced her retirement on Tuesday after 14 seasons with five teams.
Quigley, who turns 39 this month, last played with her hometown Chicago Sky from 2013-22. She helped them win a championship in 2021.
"I just took the 2023 season off ... then I took the 2024 season off ... then I took the 2025 season off ... you get the idea," Quigley wrote in The Players' Tribune.
"But all jokes aside, I never actually meant to do an Irish goodbye. When I sat out after 2022, it was for a very specific reason. It was so I could start the next phase of my life: becoming a mom."
Quigley and her wife, Sky guard Courtney Vandersloot, welcomed their first child, a daughter, in April. Vandersloot suffered a torn ACL in her right knee on Saturday in a Sky loss to the Indiana Fever and will miss the rest of the 2025 season,
Quigley was named the Sixth Player of the Year in 2014 and 2015 and won the All-Star 3-point shootout four times.
She averaged 10.9 points and shot 39.4 percent from 3-point distance in 347 career games (172 starts) with the Phoenix Mercury, Fever, San Antonio Silver Stars, Seattle Storm and Sky.
"I love knowing I can look back on my career and say it was really, really good -- but it was part of the beginning of something truly great," Quigley said.
