Ziomara Esket Morrison Jara (born February 15, 1989) is a Chilean professional basketball player. In 2012, she became the first Chilean to play in the WNBA when she was a member of the San Antonio Stars.[1]

Career

In February 2012, Morrison signed with the San Antonio Stars.[2] She was released by the team in May 2013, after an injury to Becky Hammon forced the club to sign another player.[3]

In January 2018, Morrison signed with Skallagrímur of the Úrvalsdeild kvenna ahead of its game in the semi-finals of the Icelandic Women's Basketball Cup.[4] In the semi-finals, Skallagrímur lost to Njarðvík despite Morrison's 25 points and 15 rebounds.[5]
