The 2019 WNBA Draft was a culmination of hard work and preparation—both for the 36 players selected and the 12 WNBA teams that spent countless hours scouting them.
Held at the Nike New York Headquarters for the second straight year, the WNBA Draft celebrated the players who will help shape the WNBA landscape for years to come.
Early entry candidate Jackie Young of Notre Dame went No. 1 overall to the Las Vegas Aces, and the Irish would go on to make history when all five starters were selected among the top-20 picks.
Two-time ACC Player of the Year Asia Durr of Louisville was second off the board to the Liberty. Teaira McCowan went No. 3 to the Fever after leading Mississippi St to three-straight Final Fours.
