She’s at it again, folks.
Connecticut Sun center Jonquel Jones took second place in the WNBA Skills Challenge on Friday, falling just shy of the top spot won by Chicago Sky guard Diamond DeShields. Before taking on DeShields, Jones defeated Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier, who replaced Las Vegas Aces forward A’ja Wilson in this weekend’s All-Star activities.
