The 2019 WNBA Draft takes place Wednesday, April 10 at Nike Headquarters in New York, New York. The Las Vegas Aces hold the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s draft, followed by the New York Liberty and Indiana Fever. The draft will kick off at 7:00 p.m. ET on ESPN 2 before shifting to ESPNU an hour into the broadcast at 8:00 p.m. ET.
It is the third consecutive season that the Aces hold the top pick and the current favorite to land with the Las Vegas squad is Louisville star Asia Durr. For teams that don’t have an early pick, the good news is that this year’s draft class holds a number of talented prospects and impressive depth.
Players like Teaira McCowan of Mississippi State, Kalani Brown of Baylor, and Notre Dame Fighting Irish stars Arike Ogunbowale and Jackie Young can all step in and contribute from day one.
