It’s not everyday that a double Olympic gold medal winner; a four-time Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) All-Star player; and a three-time WNBA champion graces Mumbai. Swintalya “Swin” Cash, the 34-year-old, 6ft 1-inch tall, star player for Chicago Sky is here, as part of the Reliance Junior NBA Program that promotes health and fitness among India’s youth through a school-based project. Swin is doubly happy to be far away from windy Chicago — “I’m loving it here,” she chuckles.

Swin Cash has a foot size of 12, also played baseball and was a cheerleader too! Pics/Datta Kumbhar
