When she was sixteen years old, future University of Connecticut Huskies star Diana Taurasi attended a basketball camp in Santa Barbara. One day the players were visited by His Airness, Michael Jordan. When Taurasi got to the head of the autograph line, Jordan recognized her. "Hey, I hear you're pretty good," he said. Taurasi nodded, prompting Jordan to ask, "Well, how good are you?" Taurasi's reply? "Let's get a ball."
