In addition to Swoopes and Lieberman, veteran play-by-play voice Ron Thulin, NCAA and WNBA champion Fran Harris and experienced sideline reporter ShaVonne Herndon all return to call Dallas Wings games in 2024.
Swoopes, a three-time Olympic gold medal winner and three-time WNBA MVP, was the first player to be signed in the WNBA. The Texas native won four WNBA titles with the Houston Comets and was inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame in 2016 and the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame in 2017.
Swoopes is the first women’s basketball player to have a Nike shoe named after her (the “Air Swoopes”) and is one of only 11 women’s basketball players to have won an Olympic gold medal, an NCAA Championship, a Fiba World Cup gold and a WNBA title.
