Ashley Joens was a star in college, and after averaging 19.4 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and a steal during those years, she was a part of the 2023 WNBA Draft. Joens was a second-round pick, and she was drafted by the Dallas Wings. The Wings had multiple picks in the first round that year, and they drafted Maddy Siegrist, Lou Lopez Sénéchal and Abby Meyers. Then, adding Joens in the second round and Paige Robinson in the third capped off a busy night. The 2023 Big 12 Player of the Year started the season with the Wings, but she was later waived. She found a new home shortly after, and she played for the Las Vegas Aces. She signed a seven-day contract with the Aces, and she signed another contract with them before being waived.

Joens joined the Phoenix Mercury after that, and she played eight games with them. She averaged 4.5 points and 1.1 rebound
