WNBL career
Taylor debuted in the
Women's National Basketball League playing for the
AIS (Australian Institute of Sport) starting in 1997–98, winning the
WNBL title the following season. Afterwards she moved to
Dandenong Rangers
The Dandenong Rangers were an Australian professional women's basketball team competing in the Women's National Basketball League ( WNBL). The club is based in Dandenong, Melbourne, Victoria. The team was founded as the Dandenong Rangers, howeve ...
, where she remained from 1999 to 2002. Taylor led the league in scoring with 25.5 points per game and steals with 2.5 steals per game during the 2000–01 season, being named the
WNBL MVP in that season and the next.
After 12 years away from the Australian league, Taylor signed with the Rangers for the
2014–15 WNBL season. Her main intention for the return was to stay close to her family, playing in front of her nephews while also tending for her cancer-ridden father. She scored 20.2 points a game from 17 matches in qualifying the Rangers for the playoffs. During the semifinals against the

WNBA career
Taylor was selected by the
Cleveland Rockers
The Cleveland Rockers were a Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) team based in Cleveland, that played from 1997 until 2003. The Rockers were one of the original eight franchises of the WNBA, which started in 1997. The owner was Gordon Gu ...
in the first round (11th overall) during the annual
WNBA Draft on 20 April 2001. She starred for the Rockers for three seasons.
In January 2004, the WNBA held a
dispersal draft
A dispersal draft is a process in professional sports for assigning players to a new team when their current team ceases to exist or is merged with another team. Like most other sports drafts, most dispersal drafts are conducted in North America. ...
, where the league's existing teams selected former players from the Rockers team. Taylor was selected as the first overall pick by the
Phoenix Mercury.
In July 2007 she was chosen as a reserve for the WNBA All Star game. On 16 September 2007, Penny Taylor along with
Diana Taurasi and
Cappie Pondexter led the Phoenix Mercury to the WNBA championship defeating the Detroit Shock in the final game 5 of the finals, 108 – 92, they became the first team to end out a finals series at an away venue in the WNBA.
Taylor sat out most of the 2009 season after having ankle surgery that required nine weeks of recovery, but returned to the Mercury mid-season and averaged 10.7 points off the bench. The Mercury went on to win the WNBA Championship that year, beating the Indiana Fever 3 games to 2, with Taylor making 2 clutch free throws down the stretch to help clinch the decisive game 94–86.
In 2012, Taylor suffered an
anterior cruciate ligament injury of her left knee playing in Turkey during the WNBA offseason, and was forced to sit out of the Mercury's season. Her year-long recovery in Australia had Taylor going through three knee operations, including one to remove floating cartilage revealed in a
magnetic resonance imaging exam, and seeing her mother die of cancer.
Taylor's return to the Mercury in 2013 eventually had her other knee give in after six games, leading her to further surgery.
Taylor spent the 2014 pre-season working with both the Mercury and the
Phoenix Suns health staff to make sure her return to basketball worked.

Taylor's return helped lead the team to the best result in the Western Conference with an average of 10.5 points a game for 33 games, as well as the best record in league history with 29 wins and 5 losses, only one of whom had Taylor as a starter.
