Former Hawkeye Megan Gustafson made her WNBA debut Saturday night, even if it was just as a spectator.
The former AP Player of the Year didn’t see any playing time in the Dallas Wings’ 71-61 win over Atlanta…the Wings’ first win of the season.
With injuries depleting Dallas’ roster, the Wings signed the former Hawkeye star earlier this week after waiving her before the season. At Iowa, Gustafson led the nation in scoring for the second straight season, averaging 27.9 points, and became the fourth player to reach 1,000 points in a year.
In three preseason games for Dallas, Gustafson averaged 2.6 points and 3.0 rebounds.
Gustafson hopes to see her first on-court action this week when Dallas hosts Phoenix on national television. Tipoff is set for 7pm Thursday, and the game can be seen on the CBS Sports Network.
