SEATTLE (AP) — Lauren Jackson has proven before she can juggle multiple basketball responsibilities, splitting her time between the Seattle Storm, various European teams and the Australian national team.
Her ability to prioritize will again get a workout during the next two seasons.
Jackson’s primary focus now is leading the defending WNBA champion Storm into the 2011 season. But Jackson is also looking much further ahead after announcing she would miss the first part of the 2012 WNBA campaign to give her undivided attention next year to the Australian squad as it prepares for the 2012 London Olympics.
