NEW YORK - For the first time in back-to-back years, the Alabama women's basketball program had a student-athlete hear their name called during the Women's National Basketball Association Draft on Monday night at The Shed at Hudson Yards.

The Crimson Tide has now had six players in the last six years drafted in the WNBA Draft as Timmons joins Sarah Ashlee Barker (Los Angeles Sparks), Aaliyah Nye (Las Vegas Aces) and Zaay Green (Washington Mystics), who were all selected during last year's draft.
