I talk hoops 🏀

In a league filled with talented young players, it's easy to overlook some of the lesser-known rookies making waves. But amidst the buzz surrounding Angel Reese, Aaliyah Edwards, and Rickea Jackson, three rookies have quietly impressed: Jacy Sheldon, Julie Vanloo, and Sevgi Uzun. We'll shine the spotlight on these unsung heroes, highlighting their impressive performances and statistics:

Jacy Sheldon: Sheldon has recently posted a season-high 17 points in a victory over the Atlanta Dream. In her last 11 games, she has averaged an impressive (8.4) points, (2.5) rebounds, and (2.3) assists in 28.5 minutes of action. Other standout games include 16 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists against Washington, as well as 9 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists against Chicago.

Julie Vanloo: Vanloo is one of the top facilitators in the rookie class, currently ranking second in assists with an average of (5.1) per game despite playing just 24.6 minutes of action. Her impressive assist-to-turnover ratio — leads all rookies — demonstrate her exceptional court vision. One of her best performances this season was a 15-point, 4-rebound, and 4-assist effort in a win over Los Angeles.

Sevgi Uzun: Uzun has also shown strong distribution skills as a rookie, ranking third among rookies in assists with an average of (4.0) per game. In one notable performance, she recorded a season-high 17 points, 2 rebounds, and 6 assists against Minnesota.
