Candace Parker

Following her older brother Anthony’s footsteps, Candace Parker began basketball early on and excelled even in high school. She dominated the college court with the Tennessee Lady Vols, becoming the first female to dunk in an NCAA tournament game. 

She was originally drafted first overall by the Los Angeles Sparks. In 2021, she signed a 2-year deal with the Chicago Sky, which made sense as she was from Chicago originally.  Parker’s WNBA career comprises many highlights and awards, including two gold medals representing the United States in Olympic Games. She has also been featured as an analyst on some televised NBA games as well.
