Courtesy of Eurobasket LLC We bring you last week's top former Cardinals players who are currently playing in pro basketball.

The Chicago Sky (#3) was defeated 83-76 in Las Vegas by the Aces. But the season just started, so everything may happen. This year Evans averages 8.6ppg, 1.3rpg and 2.4apg.
#3. Myisha Hines-Allen (6'2''-F-1996, graduated '2018, currently in the WNBA) was not able to secure a victory for the Washington Mystics (7-4) in their game against the Connecticut Sun (8-3) in the WNBA. She scored 5 points in 24 minutes. The Washington Mystics (#2) lost 71-79 in Uncasville to the Connecticut Sun. But the season is still in its first stage and everything can happen.

#4. Briahanna Jackson (5'6''-G-1993, graduated '2017, plays pro in Mexico) led Libertadores to a victory over the leader Astros (22-12) crushing them 100-71 in the Mexican LNBPF (second division) last Friday. She was MVP of the game. Jackson scored 29 points (!!!), grabbed 9 boards, passed 9 assists and added 3 steals. It was the game of the round between two top 3 ranked teams in group South. Libertadores de Queretaro (8-4) is placed first. It was her team's third consecutive victory in a row. There are only four games left until the end of the Regular Season. So now every game will be critical. Jackson has individually a very good season with high stats. She averages 17.3ppg, 4.1rpg, 5.8apg and 3.3spg.
#5. Samantha Fuehring (6'3''-F-1997, graduated '2019, plays in Mexico) couldn't help Panteras (7-6) in their last game.

Fuehring had a double-double by scoring 28 points and getting 11 rebounds in 38 minutes; quite an impressive performance considering it's only her third season in pro basketball. There are only three games left until the end of the Regular Season. So now every game is very crucial. Fuehring has very impressive stats this year 19.0ppg, 7.8rpg, 2.5apg and 1.5spg in 11 games.
#6. Monique Reid (6'1''-F-1990, graduated '2013, currently in Mexico) couldn't help Teporacas in their game against Regias in the Mexican LMBPF.
