Jordan was on the Orange Carpet for the WNBA’s 30th draft night, the first year in recent memory where there was no clear #1 draft pick. She shares how powerful the energy was last night and how much excitement this draft class brought.
On draft night, the Dallas Wings, on the clock with #1, picked Azzi Fudd, the “people’s princess.” The crowd at The Shed in NYC erupted with applause. And the UCLA Bruins had a historic night, with six players drafted:
🏆 #4 Lauren Betts to Washington
🏆 #5 Gabriela Jaquez to Chicago
🏆 #6 Kiki Rice to Toronto
🏆 #9 Angela Dugalic to Washington
🏆 #15 Gianna Kneepkens to Connecticut
🏆 #18 Charlisse Leger-Walker to Connecticut
Dallas had back-to-back #1 picks in ‘25 and ‘26–Paige Bueckers and now Fudd. Jordan discusses with Dallas Wings’ beat reporter Myah Taylor what Fudd adds on and off the court, and what the team will look like this year, with Fudd, Bueckers, veteran Arike Ogunbowale and other Dallas teammates.
Free agency and re-signings continue fast-and-furious across the league as we head toward training camp and preseason.
