Marquette’s all-time leading scorer Allazia Blockton signed a contract for training camp with the Chicago Sky of the WNBA Tuesday.
“Basically you try out for the team,” Blockton said. “The training camp is like three weeks and then, if they keep you, you’re on the team.”
Though Blockton officially signed her contract Tuesday, she is leaving the country Sunday for some international playing experience. From May to August, Blockton will play for Blumenau, one of Brazil’s professional teams.
Blockton missed out on being one of 36 players selected in the 2019 WNBA Draft, but she said she is excited for the opportunity to play 90 miles south at the highest level.
