Becky Hammon emerged as one of the best coaches in the WNBA this season. Following the drubbing the Las Vegas Aces received at the hands of the Minnesota Lynx, very few expected the team to reach the playoffs. However, in reality, the Aces not only went to the playoffs, but also won the title. Following the victory, several notable personalities like Tom Brady praised Becky Hammon and A’ja Wilson significantly.
Not only that, the Aces’ head coach also received praises from Wilson, Nalyssa Smith and others. Now, with things looking utterly rosy for the 48-year-old, she will be having her own documentary soon.
Becky Hammon To Have Her Own Documentary
Hammon delivered an emotional tribute to team bonding post the triumph. However, she might as well be ready for some more emotional moments incoming. According to an exclusive report from ‘Variety,’ production companies SMAC and 2463 will be documenting Hammon’s phenomenal coaching career in a non-fiction series.
Speaking about Hammon, CEO of SMAC, Schwartz-Morini said, “For decades, women on the hardwood have been underestimated and told to stay in their lane. Becky defied every expectation and broke through barriers that once seemed unshakable. Her journey inspires us all, and we’re honored to tell her story.”

Dawn Staley Highlights Added Pressure For Becky Hammon That Came With The NBA Head Coach’s Role
Stephen A. Smith recently stated that Hammon is ready to coach an NBA team. Now, one more person who came in close proximity to coaching an NBA side was Dawn Staley. Due to her outstanding performance with South Carolina, Staley joined the New York Knicks after Tom Thibodeau’s departure. And while the Knicks went with Mike Brown, Staley shared her take on females coaching in the NBA.
“It’s not just hiring the first female coach. Because one, if I’m the Knicks coach and you have a five-game losing streak, it’s not going to be about the losing streak. It’s going to be about being a female coach. So you as an organization and a franchise, you have to be prepared about that and strong enough to endure those types of instances when you’re a female coach,” Staley said.
Thus, it is evident that the upcoming documentary by Hammon will be a fascinating watch. Fans will now eagerly wait to get further updates on the same.
