Jessica Shepard is a WNBA forward for the Minnesota Lynx. She was drafted 16th overall in the 2018 WNBA draft out of the University of Notre Dame. At Notre Dame, Shepard helped bring a National Championship to the Irish community by winning the 2018 Women's March Madness Tournament. She earned All-ACC honors in her college tenure as well. Shepard's start to her professional career has been kicked off with an ACL injury that prevented her from playing the full 2019 and 2020 seasons. She has incredible potential and will be looking to capitalize on it in the coming years after an unlucky start to her WNBA career.
