WNBA career

Following her collegiate career, Hamson was selected 23rd overall (2nd round) in the 2014 WNBA draft by the Los Angeles Sparks, despite telling teams that she would defer playing a year to complete her volleyball commitments.^[4] Hamson signed with the Sparks on February 23, 2015 after sitting out the 2014 WNBA season.^[7]

Volleyball career

Hamson chose to defer playing in the WNBA so she could attend the U.S. Collegiate National Volleyball Team camp during the summer of 2014. She completed her eligibility by competing with the BYU volleyball team for the fall 2014 season.^[8] Hamson was named an All American for volleyball after the Cougars run to the Sweet Sixteen in 2013.^[9]

After leaving basketball, Hamson returned to playing volleyball, by then also professionally. In November 2018, she was signed by German Women's Volleyball League (Frauen-Volleyball-Bundesliga) club VC Wiesbaden to replace compatriot Holly Toliver. She said, "My love for volleyball has never gone away and I worked hard for a successful start in this great sport. I am very happy and grateful that I will get the chance to prove this at VC Wiesbaden. Also, this is really a beautiful city."^[10] Wiesbaden advanced to the DVV-Pokal Frauen (Women's German Cup) and Frauen-Bundesliga quarterfinals in the 2018–19 season but was swept in both by eventual league champions Allianz MTV Stuttgart, to which she signed for the succeeding season.^[11] With Hanson, Stuttgart reached the 2020 DVV-Pokal final but lost to Dresdner SC women's volleyball team. At the time the 2019–20 Bundesliga season was curtailed before the playoffs, Stuttgart stood at second place in the table. She eventually parted ways with the club.^[12]

Personal life

Hamson is a daughter of David and Tresa Spaulding Hamson, who played basketball at BYU.^{[citation needed]}
