During the postgame press conference on Thursday, Courtney Vandersloot opened up on how she feels about smashing the record.
"Well, first, for what it means to me, the most is just my time spent here," Vandersloot said (05:48). "Obviously, it took me a thousand years. But you know, I think it just speaks to like the commitment that I made to the Chicago Sky and their commitment to me as well.
