University of Miami graduating senior Adrienne Motley was nervous watching the 2017 WNBA draft. She admits it.

But after being selected as the 32nd pick in the draft by the Indiana Fever, the anxiety is gone, and Motley is ready to go.

“I was nervous during the draft because I can’t control that, but I can control what I do on the court,” Motley said.
