Candace Nicole Parker is an American
professional basketball player in the WNBA at Forward for the Los Angeles
Sparks. She may be best known for being the first woman to dunk in an NCAA
tournament game and the first woman to dunk twice in a college game — she set both
milestones as a redshirt freshman on March 19, 2006.
A uniquely versatile player, she is mainly a forward, but was listed on the University
of Tennessee's roster as a forward, center, and guard. She was a starter for
the Lady Vols teams that won the 2007 and 2008 NCAA championships
