Jackie Young
When the Las Vegas Aces got the first overall pick in the 2019 WNBA Draft, they immediately knew they wanted Jackie Young. And the Notre Dame star proved to be all they were hoping for. Young made the WNBA All-Rookie Team in her first season and is already one of the most exciting young players in the league.
She likes to keep her private life to herself and we don’t know a lot about it except that she’s a big fan of Justin Bieber.
Diamond DeShields
Diamond DeShields was surrounded by sports her entire life—both her father and brother played in Major League Baseball. It’s what inspired DeShields to become an athlete herself, and she’s on track to overshadow them. In just four years as a pro, she’s already collected an All-Star appearance and won a WNBA championship.
DeShields has plenty of other talents that may surprise you. She knows how to play the trumpet, appreciates fashion and art, and is an accomplished writer.
