It doesn't change how special McMahon's time in college was, though, and it doesn't change her chance of making an impact in the WNBA.
That is the next step for McMahon. This was her last college game.
Three years at Ohio State were followed by this last season at Ole Miss, and now she'll head to the professional ranks.

This season, McMahon averaged nearly 20 points per game, a career best after about 15 points per game in three seasons with the Buckeyes.
She left her mark with the Rebels.
"Just thanks for taking a chance on me.," Ole Miss coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin said after Sunday's loss, via the NCAA official transcript . "Cotie could have gone -- Cotie had so many schools that wanted her."

Ole Miss had a strong season with McMahon leading the way, even if they couldn't quite secure a first-weekend hosting spot that would've been a game changer.
They'll have to deal with the bummer of seeing it end so soon, but now McMahon will move on to what's next.
Most likely, she'll get a shot in the WNBA. It'll be up to her to make the most of it after an impressive college journey.
