It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.
Next up in our Women’s History Month series, our General Manager, Morgan Tuck.
Drafted #3 overall by the Connecticut Sun in 2016, Morgan spent four seasons with our organization before finishing her five-year WNBA career as a champion in Seattle.
Across her time in the league, she built her game on versatility, resilience, and a team-first mindset. She also represented USA Basketball on several occasions, most recently earning a gold medal at the 2018 FIBA World Cup.
Now, she brings that full-circle experience back to the Connecticut Sun, helping shape the future of the team she once played for.
Currently the youngest General Manager in the WNBA, Morgan Tuck’s relationship with the game didn’t end when her playing days did. It transformed into leadership, stewardship, and a commitment to shaping what comes next. This Black History Month, we honor her legacy in motion.

This month we’re celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth
Stay tuned in for our Black History Month series, where we’ll be showcasing Morgan Tuck’s unprecedented journey in the WNBA, from championship player to front office leader. In addition to showcasing Morgan, we will also spotlight the meaning of legacy and impact through the lens of our front office staff members.
Pretty amazing how playing at UConn brought us together and made us family. Incredible what Maya and Sue have accomplished in their careers. Honored to share the night with them as they receive their jackets in preparation of their enshrinement into the Naismith Hall of Fame!!
From rookies to rescues. We’ve all got fight in us.🐶
For every share of our Underdawg Campaign, we will be matching donations up to $3,000, alongside Lux, Bond & Green for the Connecticut Humane Society. Together, we’re giving underdogs their forever homes.
