Ashley Joens surprised many by coming back to school for a fifth season, but showed out in the way we’re accustomed to seeing from her. She scored 21.6 points per game and made 35.3% of her 3-point attempts. That's why the Dallas Wings selected her No. 19 overall.
Her final season didn’t cure any questions about her defensive efforts and how her slower shot mechanics will translate at the next level, but shooting is a luxury, and teams will want to take a chance on the Iowa State product.
Gaming Society: No. 9
ESPN: No. 10
The Athletic: Not in the first round
CBS Sports: No. 10
Ashley Joens’ ceiling: Role player
Ashley Joens’ final season by the numbers: 21.6 points per game, 41.1 % FG, 9.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.1 steals, 0.3 blocks, 2.2 turnovers, 35.3 3-point %, 83.6 FT%
Shooter! Joens might not be an offense’s focal point in the WNBA, but there’s a conceivable path for her to become a key bench player to provide a scoring boost.
