Her maiden name Price was selected in third place in the 2007 WNBA Draft by the Chicago Sky , who joined the league prior to the 2006 season . In the 2007 season she was in all 34 games of the season in the starting lineup of Sky and achieved an average of 7.9 points and 2.9 assists per game.

During the 2009 season she moved to the Atlanta Dream team as part of a trade, where she was only used as a supplementary player at the beginning. From the 2011 season , however, her playing minutes increased and she came back to regular appearances in the team's starting line-up.

She enters the 2014 season for the Los Angeles Sparks . There she played all of the season's games and was in the starting line-up for half of them. She enters the 2015 season for the Washington Mystics . Here the role of Herrington is reduced to that of a supplementary player.
