Send us a text

The 2025 WNBA Draft reshapes the league's future with Paige Bueckers going first overall to the Dallas Wings and several teams making strategic moves to build their rosters. As a Sparks fan, the host analyzes each top pick with detailed player comparisons and projections while considering how these rookies might impact existing team dynamics.

• Paige Bueckers (Dallas Wings) brings championship pedigree and complete skill package at guard position
• Paige's game compared to Diana Taurasi with "a smidge of Sue Bird" for efficiency and playmaking
• Dominique Malanga (Storm) dubbed "the Victor Wembanyama of the WNBA" at 6'6" with elite athleticism
• Washington Mystics collected three first-round picks: Sonia Citron, Kiki Iriafen, and Georgia Amore
• The Valkyries made a surprising fifth pick with Justé Jocyte, selecting the youngest player in WNBA draft history
• Question of whether Arike Ogunbowale and Paige Bueckers can coexist or if a trade might be coming
• Physical tools and quick drop step make Dominique Malanga a potential star despite limited offense going left
• Washington potentially building a formidable young core when combined with Shakira Austin and Aaliyah Edwards
