How to watch 2025 WNBA Draft: TV Channel, streaming, time
One week after the UConn Huskies defeated the South Carolina Gamecocks for the NCAA Tournament championship, March Madness stars will take the next step to the WNBA, meaning us women's basketball fans won't have time to catch our breaths, let alone the actual players. The 2025 WNBA Draft will be held Monday at the Shed in New York City. Only five players in WNBA history have completed the women's basketball double and began their WNBA career as the No. 1 overall pick after ending their collegiate career with a NCAA national championship: Sue Bird, who was drafted first overall by Seattle Storm after UConn's 2002 title; Diana Taurasi, who was selected first by the Phoenix Mercury after UConn's 2004 championship; Candace Parker, who was picked first by the Los Angeles Sparks after Tennessee's 2008 title; Tina Charles, who was taken by Connecticut Sun first overall after UConn's 2010 tournament win; and Breanna Stewart, who was selected first by Seattle after UConn's 2016 title. Will there be another? Most likely. Paige Bueckers is widely expected to be the first overall pick of the 2025 WNBA Draft after leading UConn to its 12 overall title and first since 2016.
