Brionna Jones

Of all the attributes Brionna Jones has in her bag of tricks, her timing may be the crown jewel. The Connecticut Sun forward saved her team from double overtime thanks to exceptional help defense, dropping into the lane to cover for a fallen-down teammate and swatting an opponent’s shot at the rim 1.9 seconds before the buzzer. The two-time All-Star’s second rejection of the game — along with four rebounds and three steals — preserved a 74-72 overtime win over the Washington Mystics on July 3, 2022.
