ALLIANCE, Neb. (AP) — Tulsa Shock forward Jordan Hooper has returned to her hometown of Alliance for a basketball jersey retirement ceremony.

Hooper’s jersey number (No. 35) was enshrined Thursday at Alliance High School. She led her team to the state title as a freshman in 2007 and won Gatorade Player of the Year for Nebraska two years in a row.

She was named a first-team All-American in 2014 by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association and was selected 13th overall in the second round of the WNBA draft.
