With Nneka's sister Chiney's selection as the first overall pick to the Connecticut Sun in the 2014 WNBA Draft, the sisters made history, joining Peyton and Eli Manning as the only siblings ever selected number one overall in a professional sports league.
The 6'2" forward and Cypress, Texas native of Nigerian descent averaged 14.6 points, 7.6 rebounds and a team-leading 1.47 steals per game in 2013 and finished second in the WNBA with a 56.6 percent shooting percentage and third in the league in total offensive rebounds (95).
