Holly Winterburn scores 12 points in WNBA pre-season debut
Holly Winterburn made an immediate impact in WNBA pre-season action, scoring 12 points for Atlanta Dream against Washington Mystics.
The Great Britain guard led the Dream in scoring in an 83-72 pre-season defeat, with Atlanta struggling with turnovers and inconsistent shooting across the contest.
Winterburn is with Atlanta on a training camp contract as she looks to earn a place in the league after establishing herself as one of Britain’s leading guards. The former Charnwood guard had won a Cup and League title with Athinaikos this season in Greece.
Her 12-point outing provides an encouraging early marker ahead of final roster decisions and the start of the WNBA regular season.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
