Career

Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the twin sister of former WNBA player Doneeka Hodges.

WNBA

edit

A 5'11" guard, Hodges played for three seasons with the Houston Comets, who selected her from the 2005 WNBA draft in the second round, 15th overall. After the Comets folded in the fall of 2008, the Lynx selected Hodges as the fourth pick in the dispersal draft for former Comets players.

On February 6, 2008, Hodges was selected by the Atlanta Dream in the expansion draft. She was then traded to the Seattle Storm with the fourth pick for Seattle's eighth pick and Iziane Castro Marques. She was signed a contract once again to the Houston Comets.

Through three seasons with the Comets, Hodges scored 382 points, collected 112 rebounds, 66 assists, 32 steals, and 4 blocks. In 2006, she scored a career high 247 points, with her career high of 21 coming against the Washington Mystics.

Coaching

edit

During the 2019–2020 college basketball season, Hodges worked as a special advisor to her alma mater LSU. The following academic year, she joined the coaching staff at Old Dominion University.[3] In September 2021, she was named an assistant coach to the Colgate University women's basketball team.[4] In 2022, she joined the new coaching staff of the New York Liberty under Sandy Brondello.[5]
