Flipping back and forth between the Ole Miss v LSU and the S Carolina v Alabama games, and I’m swayed to take McMahon over Latson. Both can get downhill, but Cotie’s size, level of compete, and ability to switch on defense gives her the edge for me.
Potential picks w/ their height, PER, AST/TOV, & 3P%:
🔹 M Doogan: 6’2/35.0/1.13/42.0% 6.8 3PA
🔹 A Dugalić: 6’4/21.8/0.98/37.3% 2.4 3PA
🔹 Y Garzon: 6’3/19.0/1.45/40.9% 7.0 3PA
🔹 J Pissott: 6’4/20.3/0.97/44.8% 6.7 3PA
🔹 M Suárez: 6’3/24.7/0.78/36.1% 5.5 3PA
🔹 L Ziegler: 6’2/24.6/1.93/36.0% 3.7 3PA
Not yet sure of the order, but I think these players should be first-round picks:
🔹 L Betts
🔹 A Fam
🔹 A Fudd
🔹 G Jaquez
🔹 F Johnson
🔹 R Johnson
🔹 G Kneepkens
🔹 T Latson
🔹 O Miles
🔹 M Okot
🔹 T Morgan
🔹 K Rice
Watching TCU and Vanderbilt play back-to-back makes me wonder if Pissott could end up higher on draft boards than Suarez.
Come draft night, it’s likely Azzi Fudd, Flau'jae Johnson, Gabriela Jaquez, Gianna Kneepkens, and Ta'Niya Latson will jockeying for the order in which their names are called early in the first round.
Also fitting into these ranges rather nicely is Tonie Morgan w/ 27.9, 3.51, and 43.3%
Top Prospects' Mid-Season PER, AST/TOV, and 3P%:
🔹 L Betts: 33.2, 1.33, NA
🔹 A Fudd: 32.9, 1.91, 48.5%
🔹 G Jaquez: 26.1, 1.50, 49.1%
🔹 F Johnson: 29.8, 2.15, 48.0%
🔹 G Kneepkens: 29.6, 2.63, 46.6%
🔹 T Latson: 30.6, 2.43, 41.7%
🔹 O Miles: 33.0, 2.37, 34.3%
🔹 K Rice: 31.2, 3.00, 35.3%
Janiah Barker, Raegan Beers, Lauren Betts, Awa Fam, Madina Okot, and Serah Williams are included in my top frontcourt prospects to watch.
Maybe a hot take, but I would not be shocked if Madina Okot gets drafted before Lauren Betts.

Maggie Doogan vs. Marta Suarez is a fun matchup to watch for any WNBA team looking for a later-round utility wing pick.
Today’s games for these point guard prospects:
🔹 R Harmon: 26 pts/3 reb/5 ast
vs.
🔹 C Leger-Walker: 13 pts/3 reb/2 ast
🔹 K Rice: 17 pts/6 reb/3 ast
🔹 R Johnson: 10 pts/5 reb/6 ast

🔹 T Mair: 11 pts/7 reb /8 ast
🔹 T Morgan: 22 pts/4 reb/8 ast
vs. Maryland
Harmon showing up huge in a big game against several other more sizable draft prospects. Proving she could be a solid second-round pick for some lucky team.

How’d they do? 👀
Updated mock draft from the Bleacher Report now that the lottery order has been decided. bleacherreport.com/articles/253...
First time since the 2018 WNBA Draft that the Draft Lottery has gone exactly according to the odds.

2026 WNBA Draft Order (Top 5)
1. Dallas Wings
2. Minnesota Lynx
3. Seattle Storm
4. Washington Mystics
5. Chicago Sky
The Dallas Wings will hold the No.1 pick for the second consecutive season.
ESPN's recent WNBA mock draft has Miles at #3, Martin at #12, Rice at #14, but I wouldn't be surprised if Raven Johnson sneaks into the first round.
Looking forward to following Olivia Miles, Kiki Rice, Raven Johnson—plus several others—to see who raises their draft stock the most throughout the season.
This is soo, sooo good! Great convo, great energy. Can't wait for the next episode. www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5x7...
Insightful conversation on some of the top prospects in this year's WNBA draft class.
Very valuable seeing Betts go against a tough opponent last night. Great insight into why she might struggle at the next level. Tremendous effort, but seemed to get frustrated/rattled/rushed with the physicality and defensive intensity. Still could be a nice piece but lots of room for growth.
The WNBA draft lottery will take place Nov. 23 on ESPN, featuring the Dallas Wings, Minnesota Lynx, Seattle Storm, Washington Mystics & Chicago Sky
Odds to land the No. 1 pick:
DAL: 42%
MIN: 26.1%
SEA: 16.7%
WAS: 9.7%
CHI: 5.5%
The ‘26 draft is scheduled for April 13
Gabriela Jaquez continues to impress. Averaging 18.0 PPG (13-21 FG, 5-10 3P), 8.5 RPG, and 3.0 APG over the first two contests, the 6-foot versatile guard is trusted defender and could make her way up draft boards if she maintains this level of play.
Spare time over the lunch hour today? You can catch the highly-touted WNBA draft prospect Awa Fam in a rematch against Fenerbahce at noon EST. www.youtube.com/@EuroLeagueW...
Another pre-season mock draft to check out. I like A Fudd before F Johnson and T Latson, but I'd also put her before L Betts. A Fam needs to show off a better motor for me to be a lottery pick. O Miles might be my #1 for now. But I generally value elite PGs >then versatile shooters >then agile bigs.
Great WNBA draft content as usual from @huntercruse.bsky.social
An excellent analysis of 2026 draft prospect, Lauren Betts, was recently published by @huntercruse.bsky.social Definitely worth checking out. youtu.be/gGM_mqQQEhA?...
Now that the WNBA season has wrapped, it's time to get excited to follow all the 2026 draft prospects. My rankings would vary a bit, but a very thorough resource to start with is the IX Basketball's preseason draft board. www.thenexthoops.com/features/202...
