Growing up in dire poverty in Suffolk, Virginia, Sugar (born Ta''Shauna) Rodgers never imagined that she would become an all-star player in the WNBA (Women''s National Basketball Association). She mastered her three-point shot on a net her brother put up just outside their home, eventually becoming so good that she could hustle local drug dealers out of money in one-on-one contests.

With the love and support of her family and friends, Sugar''s performance on her high school basketball team led to her recruitment by the Georgetown Hoyas, and her eventual draft into the WNBA in 2013 by the Minnesota Lynx. The first of her family to attend college, Sugar speaks of her struggles both academically and as an athlete with raw honesty.
