Rae Burrell

In Tennessee, there’s an infamous pickup line about being the only “10” one can see. But, when two former Volunteers brought highlights in abundance for the L.A. Sparks’ offense on July 13, 2025, Rae Burrell showed the Connecticut Sun defense that jersey No. 12 should’ve been the one in their sights. Mastering accidental improv after miscommunicating on a dribble handoff with her teammate, Burrell turns a stealth-like cut into an advantage, sneaking backdoor before scooping a layup off-glass. The Sparks’ duo weren’t in the orange jerseys that fueled respective All-SEC seasons in college, but their shot charts were green nonetheless during a four-point win. Burrell was particularly on-point during her 17-minute appearance, tallying seven points (on a perfect three-of-three shooting), two rebounds, and one assist.
