Hammon's resume should help her case for induction.

She's a 6-time WNBA All-Star, and voted as one of the WNBA's top 15 players of all time in 2011.

After her playing days, she became an assistant coach with the Spurs in 2014 and made history when she became the first-ever female head coach in the NBA's Summer League in 2015.
