2025 WNBA Draft Lottery: Where to watch, date, time, TV, livestream, teams involved, odds for No. 1 pick

The 30-minute TV special will take place after the conclusion of the women’s basketball game between TCU and North Carolina State. 

This year’s event involves the Los Angeles Sparks, Dallas Wings, Chicago Sky and Washington Mystics, though the Sky cannot end up with the No. 1 pick due to the 2023 trade in which they acquired Marina Mabrey from the Wings in exchange for all sorts of draft capitol, including a first-round pick swap in the 2025 draft. 

The other three teams, though, will have their fingers crossed that the ping pong balls bounce their way and grant them the opportunity to select UConn guard Paige Bueckers, the presumptive top pick. Ahead of the big event, here’s everything you need to know:
