H I S T O R Y
Georgia Lady Bulldogs have long been prominent figures in the professional ranks, both in the United State and overseas. All told, 35 Lady Bulldogs have gone on to play basketball professionally, including 21 in the WNBA. Deanna “Tweety� Nolan is the most decorated Georgia alum in the WNBA. She was a perennial All-Star for the three-time WNBA Champion Detroit Shock and was named the MVP of the 2006 WNBA Finals. No less than 13 Lady Bulldogs have been selected in the last 11 editions of the WNBA Draft, including eight first-round picks. Former Georgia players also are making their mark on the sideline. Teresa Edwards was the interim head coach of the Tulsa Shock in 2011, while Bernadette Mattox and Lady Grooms were assistant coaches for Connecticut and New York, respectively.
