A year ago, they made the easy decision to take guard Paige Bueckers, who went on to win the 2025 Rookie of the Year.
The decision on what to do with the pick this year isn’t as obvious.
There are four players who have made compelling cases to top this draft class: UConn guard Azzi Fudd, Spanish center Awa Fam, TCU guard Olivia Miles and UCLA center Lauren Betts.
