Alabama Women’s Basketball

Alabama women's basketball players are now making waves coast to coast - from Los Angeles to Washington D.C.

With her resilience and pro-ready game, Green is poised to bring energy and depth to the Mystics' backcourt.

Nye becomes the second former Alabama player taken in this year's draft, joining teammate Sarah Ashlee Barker, who was selected No. 9 overall by the Los Angeles Sparks. With her selection, Nye also etches her name into Crimson Tide lore as the 14th Alabama player ever drafted into the WNBA.

She was selected No. 9 overall in the first-round by the Los Angeles Sparks, making her the Crimson Tide's highest draft pick since Jasmine Walker.

"Nye is obviously an excellent 3-point shooter," said ESPN analyst Andraya Carter during a pre-draft conference call.

"She gets downhill. She's very long, has a good size, and is an aggressive shot hunter and I think that's one of the things that stands out about her," said ESPN analyst Andraya Carter.

One season. One legacy. And now, a step into the process of becoming a pro.

Her most iconic performance came in her final collegiate game, a double-overtime thriller in the NCAA Tournament Round of 32 against Maryland.

In her final season with the Crimson Tide, Nye established an impressive legacy, solidifying her status as a legend at the Capstone.

The Alabama basketball practice facility had a cost update proposed on Thursday, saving millions in dollars.
