PHOENIX ? Candace Parker, Elena Delle Donne, Mark Few, Doc Rivers and Mike D'Antoni were among the names announced Saturday for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame's Class of 2026.

In an Associated Press report carried by ESPN, Parker said the class felt especially meaningful because it also includes Chamique Holdsclaw and the 1996 U.S. women's Olympic team that inspired a generation of players.

The Hall of Fame's official finalist and class information on HoopHall.com and its announcement calendar confirmed the class reveal during Final Four weekend and set enshrinement for August 14-16 in Springfield, Massachusetts.

A broader overview from ESPN's Hall of Fame package listed the full class, including referee Joey Crawford and Amar'e Stoudemire, and detailed the ceremony timeline.

The 2026 group brought together some of the most influential names from the modern women's game, recent NBA coaching history and one of college basketball's most durable programs in Gonzaga.
