The WNBA Draft is Monday night. South Carolina women’s basketball will see at least two alums selected as both redshirt senior guard Te-Hina Paopao and senior post player Sania Feagin have earned grades as a high as the middle of the first round. Fellow Gamecock graduate Bree Hall, a 3-and-D wing, could come off the board at some point during the three-round event, too.

With the Golden State Valkyries expansion team joining the fold, there will be 38 picks on Monday. (The Las Vegas Aces lost their first-round pick.)

Last year, South Carolina star Kamilla Cardoso went No. 3 overall to the Chicago Sky as the team’s lone representative on draft night. In 2024, though, the Gamecocks tied a WNBA Draft record with five selections as Aliyah Boston, Laeticia Amihere, and Zia Cooke wound up becoming first-round picks, Brea Beal earned second-round selection, and Victaria Saxton went in the third round.

South Carolina has had players selected in the last three drafts and has had 11 first-rounders since 2016. Dawn Staley’s program should add to both numbers on Monday evening.

This year’s WNBA Draft will take place at The Shed in Manhattan, New York. ESPN will broadcast the festivities beginning at 7:30 p.m. ESPN+ and the ESPN app also will make it available for streaming. Before the actual draft begins, the WNBA Draft Orange Carpet pre-draft show will begin at 4:30 p.m. Fans can stream the show on the WNBA’s YouTube page or on the WNBA app.
