Brittney Griner and Brionna Jones are headed to the Atlanta Dream. Courtney Vandersloot is set to return to the Chicago Sky. Kelsey Mitchell is staying put with the Indiana Fever.
None of it is official until Saturday, when free agents can begin to sign contracts. But the destinations for some of the biggest WNBA free agents have been confirmed for their 2025 destinations.
Thanks to some high-profile trades earlier this week, guard Jewell Loyd is headed to the Las Vegas Aces, guard Kelsey Plum to the Los Angeles Sparks, forward Alyssa Thomas to the Phoenix Mercury and guard Natasha Cloud to the Connecticut Sun.
Two other prominent free agents — Breanna Stewart with the New York Liberty and Nneka Ogwumike with the Seattle Storm — are expected to remain with their 2024 teams. And Phoenix’s Diana Taurasi and the Washington Mystics‘ Elena Delle Donne have not officially announced their plans for 2025; both might retire.
But there are still a lot of key players to be signed who could make an impact on the 2025 WNBA season. Here are some of the biggest free agents by position we will be watching.
