Jordan Harrison has officially signed with The Fam for on-field representation, with agency founder and CEO Marcus Crenshaw stepping in as her agent.
The move comes at a pivotal moment for the 22-year-old rookie guard. Harrison went undrafted in the 2026 WNBA Draft despite being one of the most decorated defenders in college basketball, earning Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year honors, First Team All-Big 12 recognition, and Big 12 Tournament MVP.
She led West Virginia to the Big 12 Tournament Championship before the Mountaineers bowed out in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
The Portland Fire quickly signed Harrison as an undrafted free agent on April 16, 2026. She not only made the expansion team’s opening-day roster, but also logged her first regular-season WNBA minutes in Portland’s inaugural game on May 9, finishing with 4 points and 4 assists against the Chicago Sky.
This is Harrison’s first formal professional representation deal. On the agency side, The Fam has been one of the most active in the WNBA space this year.
Beyond Harrison, Crenshaw’s recent signings include Indya Nivar and Cotie McMahon. Crenshaw also brokered Courtney Williams’ two-year max contract return to the Minnesota Lynx earlier this spring.
Harrison, who set a high school state record with 74 points in a single game and finished her WVU career with 499 assists and 277 steals, now has one of the WNBA’s most player-focused agents in her corner as she fights for a permanent foothold in the league.
Takeaways
This signing is a savvy, well-timed move. Jordan Harrison is exactly the type of hungry, high-character rookie that a WNBA-specialist agency like The Fam is built to develop.
Crenshaw has carved out a reputation for turning overlooked talent into long-term professionals. And an undrafted player who earns her opening-day spot on a brand-new expansion team, then contributes immediately in her pro debut, is precisely the kind of raw asset that benefits most from experienced, hands-on representation at the start of a career.
For The Fam, adding a defensive specialist with Harrison’s pedigree, work ethic, and upside signals that the agency is betting on the next generation of WNBA talent, not just protecting today’s stars.
Can Marcus Crenshaw’s track record with overlooked WNBA players help Jordan Harrison become a long-term fixture on the Portland Fire roster? With The Fam now representing multiple young WNBA stars alongside veterans like Courtney Williams, is this agency becoming the go-to for women’s basketball talent?
