Arike Ogunbowale shatters Wings’ all-time points record vs. Liberty
ARLINGTON, TX — Arike Ogunbowale is the Dallas Wings’ new all-time total points leader. Ogunbowale entered Thursday’s game sitting only 10 points behind Deanna Nolan, who played for the former WNBA team the Detroit Shock. The 27-year-old superstar is averaging 22.6 points per outing during the 2024 season, so the chances of her recording 11 points on Thursday were incredibly high. Sure enough, Ogunbowale came through and delivered for the fans in attendance.
Ogunbowale is one of the best players in the WNBA. She has played for the Wings ever since making her debut during the 2019 season. The team has endured ups and downs over the years, but Ogunbowale has continued to play at a high level. Ogunbowale’s partnership with Satou Sabally is among the best in the league, making the Wings stars one of the best duos in the entire WNBA.
But on Thursday, it was all about Arike Ogunbowale.
Arike Ogunbowale’s impressive career with Wings
