Rashanda McCants follows in her brother's footsteps
Posted Apr 10, 2009
Another McCants is headed to Minnesota. The Minnesota Lynx picked North Carolina 6-foot-1 forward Rashanda McCants in the second round of the WNBA draft Thursday in Secaucus, N.J. McCants, who helped Asheville High to three consecutive NCHSAA 3-A championships, was taken 15th overall and will call the Target Center home for her debut season. Sound familiar?
