After four brilliant years at Northwestern, Nia Coffey will be taking her talents to a bigger stage. The only real question left is which WNBA franchise will draft her this Thursday.
Nia Coffey is the best player Northwestern women’s basketball has ever had, setting a program record in rebounds and coming just 20 points short of the all-time scoring record. She was a dominant presence during her time at Northwestern, and her combination of athleticism and offensive talent have her high on WNBA mock draft boards. Eric Nemchock of FanRag Sports has Coffey as the ninth overall pick, going to the Chicago Sky.
