The wait is over for Beatrice Mompremier
The Miami forward was selected by the Los Angeles Sparks with the 20th pick in the WNBA draft Friday night.
Mompremier will joined Leonie Fiebich, a German player, as the Sparks’ 22nd pick.
The ACC preseason player of the year sat out the majority of her senior season with a foot injury, but averaged 16.8 points and 9.8 rebounds in the games she did play.
Mompremier, a Miami native, is just the sixth Miami women’s basketball player to be drafted in the WNBA.
The Sparks went 22-12 last season and finished at the top of the Western Conference.
