SYDNEY (AP) — Five-time Olympian Lauren Jackson is taking her basketball experience off the court to become a “special advisor” in Australia's Women’s National Basketball League. A three-time most valuable player with the WNBA’s Seattle Storm and seven-time WNBL champion in Australia, the 43-year-old Jackson will take up the part-time position with the league’s new owners. The NBL Group and Wollemi Capital Group Syndicate will officially take over the eight-team league on April 2. Jackson retired after last year’s Paris Olympics.
