With a historic 2024 season in the books, WNBA front offices will now turn their attention toward the WNBA Draft lottery.
After landing the No. 1 pick in each of the last two lottery drawings and selecting Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever reached the postseason and moved down the draft board. This year, there are three teams in contention for the top pick: the Los Angeles Sparks, Dallas Wings and Washington Mystics. (The Chicago Sky are also a lottery team, but the Wings own the right to swap picks with the Sky.)
This lottery drawing is essentially viewed as the Paige Bueckers sweepstakes. The UConn guard is already off to a terrific start in her senior season, and she has the potential to be a franchise-changing superstar.
Here is everything you need to know about the WNBA Draft lottery, including how to watch the annual event.
