The 2023 WNBA draft will be held on Monday, April 10. It will be exclusively televised on ESPN from 7-9 p.m. EDT and available on the ESPN app. This year’s draft class is deep and it just got deeper.

With South Carolina’s Aliyah Boston, Maryland’s Diamond Miller and LSU’s Alexis Morris officially declaring for the draft, it will be one for the record books. You can follow along with the draft board and in-depth features on players on the WNBA’s Draft Central page.

The WNBA also shared a quiz for fans to see, based on a list of answers, what team the fan would be drafted to in 2023.

While some are entering the WNBA draft, others are deciding to use their remaining eligibility.

Professional players are urging their college counterparts to stay in school as long as they can. This is likely due to the fact that players can now monetize their brands in college and the limited number of roster spots available to play professionally in North America.

The ratings from the women’s March Madness have come in and from sold-out crowds to record-breaking viewership, the likes some men’s professional teams and leagues haven’t seen, the future of women’s basketball is bright.
