Shanna Zolman is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on September 7, 1983 in Syracuse, Indiana, United States. Shanna Annette Zolman (born September 7th 1983) is a American pro basketball athlete. She played playing for the Tulsa Shock of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA). She went to college in Tennessee at University of Tennessee and graduated in 2006 with a degree from broadcasting. After her college career she was selected sixteenth overall for the WNBA Draft by the San Antonio Silver Stars.
In April 2005 Zolman was selected with the San Antonio Silver Stars in the second round (No. 16, overall) in the 2006 WNBA Draft. In her debut season, Zolman appeared in all 34 games of the regular season having a great rookie season, averaging 6.6 point per game and taking 16.1 minutes in a game. She was ranked 13th by the WNBA in the 3 percent of points (.378). She scored a record-breaking 18 points in the game against The Phoenix Mercury on August 12 in 2006. In the 2006 season, the San Antonio Silver Stars finished with a record of 13-21 and missed the playoffs.
On August 30, 2007, Zolman played a key role in the waning moments of the Phoenix Mercury’s controversial victory over the Silver Stars in Game 1 of the WNBA Western Conference Finals. After Becky Hammon hit a three-point shot to tie the game with approximately three seconds left in regulation, Phoenix attempted to drive for a final basket. Phoenix guard Cappie Pondexter fell to the floor in the backcourt under defensive pressure from Zolman. Zolman was called for a reach-in foul with 2.1 seconds remaining, and in turn Pondexter made two free throws and Phoenix won the game, 102–100. ESPN announcers and many fans questioned the call, because video footage arguably indicated that Pondexter had merely slipped and Zolman had committed no foul. Additionally, the replay also showed that Shanna’s jab step toward Pondexter is what caused Cappie to falter, and since there wasn’t any contact made, the correct call should have been a traveling violation on Phoenix; in effect, a great defensive play by Shanna Zolman. Mercury fans, however, felt the call was appropriate. While most objective fans consider it to be one of the worst calls in WNBA history. The head official reviewed the call to determine how much time remained on the clock, but WNBA rules do not permit instant replay review of whether a foul was committed. At the post game press conference, Hammon stated that Zolman did nothing wrong and that the officials made a mistake. Lost in all this, is that Zolman came within an eyelash of sinking a 75-foot shot at the buzzer to make the issue moot. But, it bounced off the rim. Determined to make good, Shanna came out of the gate sizzling hot in Game 2, scoring 17 first-half points, including 5 three-pointers. She finished the game with 20 points, including 6 three-pointers, as the Silver Stars were defeated 98–92.
During the 2007 WNBA season, Zolman played in all 34 regular season games, starting one, making her the only Silver Stars player to have appeared in every game for the last two seasons. She averaged 9.2 points, 1.4 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 0.41 steals per game. Zolman also tied a franchise record for 3-pointers made in a game after hitting 7 of 11 3-pt field goal attempts on Aug 2 against the Phoenix Mercury (also ties for second in WNBA history).
On the 14th of October on the 14th of October, the 14th of October, Shanna got married to her former college lover ex- University of Tennessee fullback Andrew David Crossley (b. August 4 1980) who she attended the Fellowship of Christian Athletes meeting. But, since they’ve split, Shanna has decided to change her first name of Zolman, her maiden name.
