Lisa Leslie is one of the most articulate, humble public speakers in all of professional sports. Congratulations on your induction into the Naismith Basketball Hall Of Fame, Lisa! You helped make the WNBA what it is. I'll never forget first seeing you guest star on a few episodes of Sister Sister. You were great then, you are even greater now. Congratulations once again!

[@spitnificent]

[@Ace_etereo]

Lisa Leslie is the greatest of all time right? As far as females go?

I would say second behind Sheryl Miller, although she never played in the WNBA because it didn't exist.

[@shamaneikajohnson7117]

It must really suck to be a woman standing at 6'5. Hell I'm 5'8 and I feel like a GIANT but she hella Tall. Too damn tall. Smh

[@Xrayballer88]

Becoming a basketball hall of famer should be a good enough tradeoff for that height though. And if I heard correctly, her husband is 6'7". Their kids are going to be Shaqs, haha.

[@2020Viszion]

Shamaneika Johnson That’s just your opinion, no one cares what you think, smh.

[@briangreen430]

Turned it off as soon as she credited Jesus for her success.
