The San Antonio Stars will host a Becky Hammon retirement ceremony presented by SWBC on August 15. The ceremony, which will take place following the Stars-Lynx game, will honor the career of guard Becky Hammon, who on July 23 announced that she will retire at the conclusion of the 2014 season.

Now in her eighth season in San Antonio, Hammon is the Stars all-time leader in assists, three-point field goals made and points per game while ranking second in franchise history in points and games.

Participants in the ceremony will include Hammon, WNBA president Laurel Richie, Stars head coach Dan Hughes and RC Buford, the president of sports franchises for Spurs Sports & Entertainment. The event will air live on Fox Sports Southwest, following the Stars-Lynx broadcast.
