It is no surprise to established WNBA fans that Diana Taurasi appears briefly chirping at an unknown target in the league’s 2024 campaign that parodies an office onboarding video. The clip is to highlight that “communication is highly valued.”

Taurasi, 41, took heat last month when she said “reality is coming” for the league’s incoming rookies.
