There’s a lot of excitement and buzz around the WNBA as its set to tip off its 29th season on Friday night thanks in large part to last season’s rookie class led by Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese.

Caitlin Clark's star power and the Indiana Fever’s offseason moves to bolster an already competitive roster around her is drawing strong betting interest.

Future WNBA stars are using the league's draft night as more than an opportunity to step into the spotlight for their talent on the court, but to use the moment to honor where they come from, showcase who they are beyond the jersey, and make powerful statements through fashion, family, and tradition.

The WNBA is set to welcome its new rookie class, headlined by Paige Bueckers when the league holds its annual draft Monday night.

Paige Bueckers is clearly the best-known player in Monday’s WNBA draft, but Dominique Malonga of France is among the most interesting.
