Becky Hammon. Trailblazer, warrior, and one of the GOATs. By now you’ve already heard that Hammon is the new head coach of the Las Vegas Aces, but make no mistake, Hammon is that chick and has been for a very long time. Through the course of her NBA career, Hammon was a six-time All-Star, making the All-WNBA first team twice, and obviously Hammon has continued to raise the bar becoming the first full-time female assistant coach in any of the four major professional sports in 2014.
