Nneka Ogwumike

Now in her 12th season with the Los Angeles Sparks, Nneka Ogwumike has seen it all — so rallying from a 17-point deficit hardly seemed insurmountable. The eight-time All-Star and her squad kept chipping away against the Dallas Wings, as Ogwumike made the extremely difficult look breezy as she drove into the paint before hitting the defense with a slick turnaround jumper while drawing a foul. The third-quarter bucket brought the Sparks to within nine, and by the end of the period the deficit would be just two as Ogwumike’s 20 points, seven rebounds, two assists and three steals led the way in the 76-74 comeback win on June 23, 2023.
