WNBA Professional Basketball PlayerSuzanne Brigit Bird was born in suburban Long Island on October 16, 1980.
When practice was over, she put down the ball and put her mind to other things.
By age 15, after two years on Syosset's varsity hoops team, her game was ready to blossom.
On a simple stop-and-pop Sue had executed without incident countless thousands of times before, she felt her left knee collapse during practice and had to be carried off the court.
On the court, Sue had to get over her own case of hero-worship.
