- 2026 WNBA Draft Board
Throughout the collegiate and international season, this board will be consistently updated.
These rankings do not reflect player “value” rather how I would rank them based on where I view their professional translation. Even in rankings, there are ranges, fluctuations, and a multitude of ways to look at things which I will dive into in writing and video.
Fit and ability to make an impact where you’re drafted/signed means more than just about anything else, although I do feel there are going to be very clear tiers within how each class stacks up.
Notes
I am only including players who are automatically eligible: For college players, if you are a listed senior and/or have announced that you will be entering the 2026 WNBA Draft, you’re considered on this. For international players who turn 20 by the end of 2026, they are automatically eligible.
As players declare they are entering or publicly state their intention to, I will update accordingly!
In the 2026 Draft, we will jump up to 15 picks per round.
Again just want to reiterate that this is what I think personally, not what I think will actually happen during the Draft.
