Arkansas' success in WNBA Draft enticing to major targets

Arkansas women’s basketball coach Mike Neighbors’ two major 2022 targets were happy and impressed to see guards Chelsea Dungee and Destiny Slocum selected in the WNBA Draft on Thursday.

Dungee was the No. 5 pick of the Dallas Wings, and Slocum was the 14th overall selection to the Las Vegas Aces.

ESPN 5-star junior guard Ysabella Fontleroy, junior forward Kharyssa Richardson and sophomore guard Maraja Pass hope to have their names called in the WNBA Draft in the future. Neighbors is hoping that happens after they complete their college careers in Fayetteville.

“I am super proud of them,” Richardson said.
