Ashley Ann Owusu (born January 22, 2001) is an American professional basketball player who is a free agent. She was selected by the Dallas Wings in the 2024 WNBA draft. She played college basketball at Maryland, Virginia Tech and Penn State.
Owusu was thrust into a leadership role in her sophomore season after five seniors graduated and three players transferred out of the program.[1] She scored her then-career high of 25 points in a game against Towson, breaking it less than a month later with a 34-point performance against Penn State.[2]
In addition to being named a third-team All-American, Owusu was also named the recipient of the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award, awarded to the top college basketball shooting guard in the country.[3] [4] She was named the most outstanding player of the 2020 Big Ten women's basketball tournament.
On May 4, 2022, Virginia Tech head coach Kenny Brooks announced that his team had added Owusu to their team with two years of eligibility remaining.[5]
After losing her starting spot at Virginia Tech and playing very limited minutes in the second half of the season, Owusu announced on June 1, 2023 that she was transferring to Penn State.[6]
Owusu was drafted with the ninth pick in the third round (33 overall) of the 2024 WNBA draft by the Dallas Wings.[7] On 5 May 2024, Owusu was waived by the Dallas Wings.[8] [9]
Owusu accepted an invite to attend AmeriCup trials for the United States national team in 2021.[10]
