Diana Taurasi's court date was originally scheduled for July 22, but East Valley Tribune.com reported that the date has been postponed until Aug. 21.
East Valley Tribune.com said Taurasi was scheduled to appear in Phoenix Municipal Court on Wednesday, but attorneys agreed to a continuation.
As of now, Taurasi has been suspended for two games by the Mercury "for conduct detrimental to the team." She missed last Saturday's game against Detroit Shock and sat out Wednesday night's game against Minnesota.
Taurasi originally thought she might miss out on the All-Star Game altogether, but to her surprise she was chosen as a reserve for the 2009 Western Conference All-Stars. The bad news is that mandatory sentencing for extreme DUI is 10-30 days in jail.
The future is unknown for this talented athlete, but I'll do my best to keep fans updated on the situation.
