WNBA

[edit]

On April 28, 1997, Manning was selected with the 10th overall pick of the 1997 WNBA Draft by the Charlotte Sting. Her debut game was played on June 22, 1997 in a 59 - 76 loss to the Phoenix Mercury where she recorded 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 steals.[4] Manning would spend her first 3 seasons as a member of the Sting. The Sting made the playoffs in her rookie year but were eliminated in the first round by the Houston Comets. They would reach the playoffs again in her sophomore season in 1998 (being eliminated in the first round again by the Comets) and her third season in 1999 (being eliminated in the Eastern Conference Finals by the New York Liberty). Manning's minutes and productivity were around the same in all 3 seasons with Charlotte, averaging 15.6, 19.2, and 16.3 minutes per game in her first three years (with her PPG being 4.9, 5.4 and 4.3 respectively).[5]

On December 15, 1999, Manning was selected by the Miami Sol in the WNBA Expansion Draft [6] and spent her fourth season with the Sol, playing 24 games and averaging 4.3 points and 4.2 rebounds (but would miss the playoffs for the first time in her career).

Manning would announce her retirement from the WNBA on August 10, 2000 and thus her final WNBA game ever was the last regular season game she played with the Sol on August 9, 2000. In her final game, the Sol would defeat the Orlando Miracle 68 - 64 with Manning helping out with 2 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block in the victory.[7]
