Texas A&M's Aicha Coulibaly gets selected in the 2025 WNBA Draft by the Chicago Sky
Texas A&M's Aicha Coulibaly gets selected in the 2025 WNBA Draft by the Chicago Sky Texas A&M senior guard Aicha Coulibaly was selected in the second round of the 2025 WNBA Draft as the 22nd overall pick by the Chicago Sky, becoming the 18th Aggie drafted in the program's history. Coulibaly joined the Aggies in 2023 as part of head coach Joni Taylor's highly talented transfer class. Over her two seasons with the team, she played a pivotal role, including leading Texas A&M to an NCAA tournament appearance. Despite a standout first season, her senior year was cut short after 19 games due to a leg injury. She finished her college basketball career averaging 13.3 points per game and 5.4 rebounds, making a strong impact in her starting role. Joining an impressive Chicago Sky lineup, Coulibaly will team up with first-round picks Ajsa Sivka and Hailey Van Lith, as well as fellow second-rounder Maddy Westbeld. The competition to secure a spot on the Sky's roster will be tough, but Coulibaly's skills and determination reflect her readiness to compete at the professional level. Her draft selection underscores her growth and dedication as a player, solidifying her as a notable addition to the WNBA.
