Sue Bird is still not used to being described as a former basketball player.
It’s not that the longtime Seattle Storm point guard, who called a wrap on her WNBA career in 2022 after more than two decades in the league, was worried about finding something to fill her time. Instead, she says, “the scariest part” of retiring was the question it raised: “Who am I without this?”
In a sense, the new documentary “Sue Bird: In the Clutch” is her answer. Or at least an answer. The film follows Bird during her final WNBA seasons while looking back on her time as a student athlete, her international career and her achievements off the court. In other words, a portrait of someone who was never “just” a basketball player.
Even before retiring, she co-founded @togethxr, a media and commerce company launched in 2021, with fellow Olympians soccer star @alexmorgan13, snowboarding phenom @chloekim and groundbreaking swimmer Simone Manuel (@swimone).
