Parker, who hails from Queens, New York, was the fifth overall pick in the 2015 WNBA Draft.
She was drafted by the Chicago Sky after putting up strong numbers for Middle Tennessee State University.
Cheyenne struggled to get regular game time in Chicago, spending time in Poland, China, and South Korea as she worked hard on her game.
It paid off in 2020 as she enjoyed a breakout season, putting up career-high stats in scoring, assists, rebounds, and shooting percentages.
Parker signed with Atlanta in 2021 and after a slow first campaign, showed off her real potential in 2022.
She started a career-high 35 games last year, averaging 11.8 points and 6.2 rebounds per game.
Cheyenne was named to the All-Star team earlier this month, admitting to Bally Sports that it moved her to tears.
Parker said: “It’s a long time coming. It was a goal of mine since I got into the league.
“Being on the USA team was one of them, so making All-Star at year nine, it gives me hope.
“It lets me know that the hard work, the perseverance, the resilience, it does pay off and no goal is too high, to keep my goals and to continue to work towards them.”
Away from the court, Parker boasts a huge Instagram following of 156,000 fans.
She regularly posts modeling shots on the platform, recently wowing in a beachside bikini photoshoot.
Taken in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, Parker’s look saw jaws drop in the comment section.
One fan gasped: “Whoa……”
Another said: “Sweet Jesus!”
While a third added: “Queen looking so amazing always absolutely gorgeous.”
The Dream went 14–22 last season and hasn’t made the playoffs since 2018.
