Teaira McCowan

In search of some sort of offensive boost with the red-hot Las Vegas Aces threatening to run away in the first quarter, the Dallas Wings found a temporary uplifting through the rarest of sources: Teaira McCowan’s deep-range shooting touch. Left along the 3-point island completely by her lonesome, the powerful sixth-year big decides to test her range, setting her form for a catch-and-shoot triple before connecting on the first of her career, drawing admiration from the home crowd. Known to occasionally drain midrange shots or hit 3-pointers during dead-ball situations, McCowan officially checked off the milestone in real-time on June 5, 2024. The Wings’ comeback attempts, despite considerable efforts, would fall short on this night. Even so, McCowan rode the momentum of her historic bucket to a 14-point performance alongside 15 rebounds, three assists, and a pair of blocks.
