After winning the 2025 WNBA Draft lottery, it was clear the Dallas Wings would have a great draft.
There’s a reason the Wings’ general manager, Curt Miller, was literally jumping for joy when they won. Why? Because they had a chance to draft generational talent: Paige Bueckers.
Dallas didn’t overcomplicate their situation, and they made the no-brainer move drafting the UConn legend with the No. 1 pick. This selection made them the biggest winners on draft night and established them as contenders for years to come.
Bueckers accomplished everything conceivable in college, winning the national title this season and averaging 19.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game.
The Wings weren’t done after drafting Bueckers. They also added Aziaha James of North Carolina State at No. 12, Madison Scott of Ole Miss at No. 14, JJ Quinerly of West Virginia at No. 27 and Aaronette Vonleh of Baylor at No. 31. James averaged 17.9 points per game with 4.9 rebounds and 2.6 assists in her senior year with the Wolfpack. Scott scored 11.8 points per game during her final collegiate season with the Rebels, and Quinerly averaged 20.4 points for the Mountaineers this year. Vonleh scored 14.9 points per game for the Bears.
With these five players in place, Dallas walked away…
