CHICAGO (AP) -- Former Olympic gold medalist and two-time WNBA champion Ruth Riley has signed with the Chicago Sky.

The Sky announced the agreement on Monday.

The veteran center has averaged 6.3 points and 4.0 rebounds over 11 seasons and has made the playoffs 10 times. She spent the past five seasons with San Antonio, helping the 2008 team reach the WNBA finals after winning championships with the Detroit Shock in 2003 and 2006. She also led Notre Dame to a national championship in 2001 and won the gold medal with the U.S. Olympic team in 2004.

In Chicago, she will be reunited with Swin Cash, her teammate on Detroit's 2003 championship team.
