Khayla Pointer and Faustine Aifwua Both Selected by Las Vegas Aces in WNBA Draft

The 2022 WNBA Draft was held Monday night and a pair of Tigers were both selected by the Las Vegas Aces.

Khayla Pointer was selected in the second round, 13th overall, while Aifuwa was picked in the third round, 35th overall. They will be reunited with their former head coach Nikki Fargas who serves as the Aces’ president, and are the 19th and 20th draft picks in program history.

As an added bonus, Pointer and Aifuwa will be joining former Tiger Theresa Plaisance so if you need a WNBA team to latch onto, the Aces are your bet.
