She was raised on the city’s South Side and attended Fenger Academy High School where she played on the girls’ basketball team

Earlier this week, she set a Chicago Sky record with 19 rebounds against the Atlanta Dream.
Her new achievement came on the heels of Caitlin Clark also making history. On Saturday, the Indiana Fever rookie became the first WNBA rookie to record a triple-double as she steered the Fever to victory with 19 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds against the league-leading New York Liberty.
