Rickea Jackson, the fourth pick from the 2024 WNBA draft, gave props to Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter. During an interview with Bleacher Report, which posted on Thursday, Jackson was asked which skill from another player she would like to add to her game.

Jackson was quick to say she wanted to add Carter's handles to her skillset. The clip was reposted by the TikTok account "highlighther" and then was again re-posted by Carter.

Carter included a response indicating how she felt about Jackson's comments.

"That's luv fasho," Carter wrote along with a heart emoji.

Aside from re-posting the clip of Rickea Jackson, Chennedy Carter also added a screenshot of a post on X to her Instagram Stories.

At the frontcourt, Napheesa Collier was named at the small forward spot, Breanna Stewart at power forward and A'ja Wilson at center.

Among the players on the list, Carter is the only one who has yet to be named an All-Star.

Ionescu, who shared the backcourt with Carter, has been an All-Star for three seasons straight since 2022.

As for the three players on the frontcourt, Collier is a four-time All-Star (2019, 2021, 2023 and 2024), Stewart has been given the nod six times (2017, 2018, 2021-2024) and Wilson six times (2018, 2019, 2021-2024). However, Carter is also the youngest at only 26 years old. Ionescu is a year older at 27. Collier and Wilson are both 28, and Stewart is already 30.

While she is yet to be named to an All-Star team, Chennedy Carter's play last season earned her three points for the Most Improved Player of the Year award. She finished fourth in voting.
