Lindsay Whalen has announced she is retiring at the end of the 2018 season. Whalen, who was also named head women’s basketball coach at the University of Minnesota in April, has been attempting to balance duties as a player and coach all season. It appears that the responsibility of doing both has finally become too much to bear:
Lindsay Whalen on the air with @1500ESPN “Once I kind of realized the responsibilities to run a program and be a head coach, there was no way I was going to be able to do both for more than a year”
