Starting Sat a.m., and through Sunday, the Washington Mystics Championship Season will be replayed...On Sunday a.m., the commentator for the first game will be none other than our own Ariel Atkins...and Friday night, of course, we may (hopefully) get to see Lashann Higgs and Joyner Holmes get drafted into the WNBA...fingers crossed!!
Ariel was called a ‘reach’ when selected by the Mystics. 2 years in the league - a starter in 2 WNBA finals, 1 Championship.
Absolutely. She was the best scorer and consistent shooter on the team and should have been the go-to-player taking the most shots offensively, averaging 18-20 points a game instead of running the pick-and-roll-and-pass offense that rarely created an easy basket.
Her pull up mid-range game was good as I've ever seen at the collegiate level... the offense should have run from Brooke and through Ariel.
Didn’t want to create a new thread - it seems Ariel, Emma Meesseman, and Myisha Hines-Allen are roomies in the “Wubble”. Lizards have been a hot topic with Diamond DeShields and Sydney Colson starting up their own Lizard & Chameleon Removal Service. In the video, Emma foregoes the removal and chases Ariel and Myisha around their house with it. Nice to see they’re still finding moments of fun. Makes me like Emma even more (yes - I was that brother).
