L.A. Sparks coach happy to sign Alyssa Ustby, who she tried to recruit out of high school

Posted Apr 18, 2025
Lynn Roberts missed her first chance to coach Alyssa Ustby but is delighted to have a second chance. The Los Angeles Sparks coach couldn’t lure Ustby to Utah, where she coached for nine seasons, when Ustby was a high school star in Minnesota and decided to play at North Carolina. "She ended up telling us no, but I’ve always just been a big fan." (Tar Heel Tribune)
