LA Sparks Sign Jasmine Lister

Los Angeles Sparks sign guard Jasmine Lister.

​

She just got finished running the point and coaching the guys against our Olympic team ...she should be ready!
I guess Geno's glowing testimonial about her last week at training camp didn't hurt.

Awesome !! Congrats, Jas !!!!

They just signed Riquna Williams the other day - wonder if Jas got a training camp deal or if she signed for the season?

Probably a training camp - but it is a great chance for her with her old coach - couldn't be better and should give her a definitive answer on her career path. Hope she can stick.

Umm, VolNation called... they want their silly GIF back!

Congrats, Jas! Go for it!

No one deserves success in life more than this lady. By the way, Chauncey Billups just said on NBA Countdown that he predicts the traditional position of off guard will be the next position to become obsolete in the NBA. Looks like it already has a head start in CBB.

Happy for you, Jas! Wishing you large success!

Interesting. So you're saying we could start Kia at the point, and then Lou, Phee, and Gabby at the wings, with a post? (A couple of wings could float, so to speak?)

I could see that working!

Sounds like a plan. And one gritty, strong willed, high energy, fun to watch team it would be. Add those two go-getters, Molly (perpetual motion) Bent and good shooting blue collar bruiser Kayla Irwin (who seems to improve game by game) along with Ms Dangertoeveryone and that team is gonna hurt someone. One of the most coachable teams Geno's ever had. I said it before, but I can't wait until all of WCBB writes this team off.

I can't remember which team it was, but one of our recent conference opponents started 5 guards against us one evening. They weren't tall, but they were quick, and they all could shoot. Obviously that idea failed against us, but it was worth a try. They didn't have anything to lose. I think UConn was favored by 35.

I would love for her to make the cut. I attend about 10 Sparks home games a year. I'm a big Sparks fan. I try and attend games against opponents that have recent UConn alums on their roster. I'm also a big NY Liberty fan (K.Stokes).

We'll see what happens if UConn faces Louisville who may use 4 guards and a wing.

damn it... but good for her

The only logical replacement is her twin sister Cinnamon.

Yeah they look exactly the same, that's crazy. Usually there is some way to tell twins apart.

The championship ring would be the difference.
