I feel that the biggest winner is the Chicago Sky. They're getting Cardoso and Reese!
on everything! I saw that and was like "this should be illegal"
As a lifelong Hawkeye (and therefore CC fan), I second your opinion!! How did Chicago get both the #3 and #7 picks?! Such a formidable duo! Yikes!!
Yep that will be deadly
I guess you're forgetting about Cameron Brink and Rickea Jackson going to the Sparks. And Caitlin Clark pairing up with Aliyah Boston.
@@renoblomberg4054 killer combos for sure. I’m actually going to tune in to the WNBA full time now. Very excited
Winners and losers is a crazy title for this video 🤦🏾♀️
That sums up sports!
makes no sense @ all , and all of them are Winners in my eye.
The WNBA sucks.. they are all loopooosers. 💀@@nazarethwilkinsonhill1637
Never watched a single WNBA game before in my life but I will be tuning in from now on.
I will, too. I can’t wait!
Facts!!! Me too!
Easier said than done. Hope you do join in.
Welcome! ❤
Spoiler: Las Vegas Aces are ready for the three-peat ♦️♣️
I think Chicago gonna have a immediate impact
facts
Cardoso and Reese on the same team. Ooooohhh!!!!🏀💯♥️
What an amazing transition. In college (SC vs LSU) they were taunting, pulling hair, gesturing, etc... now they have to learn to play together
@@cliffordhill2365 They already know how. Played together on Team USA.
Cardoso is Brazilian @@helenoftroy1227
@@helenoftroy1227 Cardoso is Brazilian and played for her native country at the recent FIBA tournament.
@@cliffordhill2365 They wont. One will either be on another team or in another league
Los Angeles and Chicago got the best deal in this draft !!!
I'm interested in the TWIN TOWERS in Chicago W👀W!!!
Aces have that with Kitley and Wilson now too
I just paused this video to say that there are no losers this year. Scratch that s**t off your card! This year is about what we love!
Bingo
Rickea Jacksons midrange shot is second to none. It's crazy for to be barely be in the conversation.
fr that fade she does is crazy
People really slept on Rickea Jackson. Wasn't talked about enough but understood it because of the popularity of Clark/Brink/Cardoso/Reese which deserved the attention. But Rickea is an all around player that can score inside and out, play defense and is very tough minded. I know most will say the duo of Cardoso/Reese in Chicago, but they don't have a lot of offense game especially in the perimeter, but could grow into later in their careers. They will however be really good defensively and getting rebounds. But right off the bat, for me the LA Sparks have the best incoming duo in Brink/Jackson because both can do it on both ends.
Best player in the draft
Did you see how bad brink played in her last tournament games she 8 points 💀 and 8 rebounds against 🚨IOWA STATE 🚨and she fould out And against NC STATE she had 13 points and 9 rebounds and she fould out that game as well
Chicago won the draft and it ain't close
Reese finished with 17 points and 20 rebounds against Iowa and cardoso finished with 15 points and 17 rebounds
@@Lilquan2004 that was a bad game for angel 😂.
Yea chi town won the draft but la was a close second.
Chicago got a squad yooooo😮😮😮😮
Congratulations to the WNBA Draft Class of 2024! Round 1 to 3! The 1st pick to the 36th pick! The state of Mississippi has picks from Ole Miss, Mississippi State, and Jackson State! I believe the WNBA will be very interesting moving forward!!!
The fact there is only 12 teams in the WNBA is problematic. If these ladies didn't get drafted in the 1st round, its a wrap for most of the draftees to make any team roster. We have seen this in past years where your favorite collegiate player goes 2nd round, only to play overseas. Expand the league to 16 viable teams!
And whose gonna PAY$ for those 4 additional teams_?
I’ve never watched a WNBA game in my life, but as a Chicago resident, I’m excited about this season!…Yes, it was all the coverage of Clarke that made me interested enough to watch the women’s tournament as well, so I’m excited about this draft class!
WNBA is finally getting there time to show all the talent they have🙏
Showing it and producing it on the court are two different things especially since they've never made a profit in their league history
OMG...... these men are really jealous. wow.
@@joeydeeznutz who's jealous is say the women are the those current and former wnba activist are jealous of Catlin Clark the coming in Savior of the wnba
Chicago had the best night easily
I think there will be a lot of girl dads watching the WNBA this season. Gives them something to bond over with their daughters.
Winners are the chicago sky aint no doubt point blank period cardoso and reese
Sparks are the winners
I agree with ya wholeheartedly. We all know that Cardoso is 6"7 and Reese 6"3, Reese plays like she's also 6"7! she gets excellent position down low which is why she led the NCAAW in rebounds both defensively and offensively.
Angel Reese is popular but she's still raw on offense. They will be a force on D. But the Sparks clearly had the best draft. Rickea Jackson was the best player in the draft.
It's kinda hard to say who's the best player coming out. It could be Brink because she's the most balanced (can do it all). Hands down the biggest impact player is Clark! Angel is raw on offense, but she has a little shot in the paint which has gotten to be reliable along with her put backs underneath
@@Rich_iamReese finished with 17 points and 20 rebounds against Iowa and cardoso finished with 15 points and 17 rebounds against Iowa you want to know what brink had against Iowa State 💀 and NC State 8 points and 8 rebounds and against NC State 13 points and 9 rebounds and she fould out both games you tell me who look pro ready the most
Cardoso and Angel Reese on the same team sounds soooo goood 😋
Chicago got the best pieces. 😊
Can't believe this my first time watching the WNBA draft
Me too
As a Mystics fan, i'm happy with the Aaliyah Edwards pick. But id be lying if I didn't say I feel like we missed a HUGE opportunity with passing on Angel Reese. She's from Baltimore only an hour away from DC, the buzz she woulda brought to the city, the Mystics woulda been bigger than the Wizards, EASILY. and I think that buzz woulda flowed throughout the rest of the team and the organization. we coulda had two of our best players being from the area with Shakira being from VA as well. That duo would've been crazy. And not only that, by passing on Angel we let her go to another Eastern Conference team who already picked Kamila Cardoso a few picks before. So now we gotta go through Chicago lol. Either way, Aaliyah is a very good pick, she's from UCONN so we know she's pro ready, we don't doubt her skill. But I feel sometimes, it's not always about X's and O's.
Aces got a squad. The addition of Kate Martin.
Well Caitlyn may shoot but she doesn’t play defense so she bets to be ready for the real league
The Aces got a steal in Elizabeth Kitley. She was a 3 time ACC Player of the Year.
She’ll be good for the future, if they keep her. That ACL tear is an issue.
They may trade her or she may get cut. Play time is scarce in the W.
I’m sad my sparks blew this . Kamilla and Angel should both be sparks . This was a no brainer . Chicago by far won the draft . To get Kamilla and Angel . That’s rebounding . Defense . Toughness and star power . All that LA needed . Brinks and Jackson are both good but they don’t have that star power imo
I thought that wouldve been an excellent move to have Cardoso at the 5 and Zia Cook getting more playing time at the 1 or 2 spot. The previous chemistry at S.Carolina with those two would translate great in the W....and Reese adding that additional spark (no pun intended), to the floor at a possible 4 position...but Chicago got the picks in that subpar market.
@@anthonyjeter4643 I’m so sad i can’t believe LA passed on both
I might be a CHICAGO fan now.
Sparks blow it again? Wouldn't surprise me one bit. We'll have to wait and see tho.
Rickea Jackson maybe the best all around player in this draft.
Can't wait for wnba season to start. New women's golden state team too. Boston and Clark both #1 picks, power duo.
Clark Reese and south Carolina just took women basketball to a whole new level
The Sky, Sparks, and Aces won the draft. And the Aces snagging both Dyaisha Fair and Elizabeth Kitley was criminal for the back to back champs.
And imma throw the Lynx in their for getting Alissa Pili
Alissa Pili is an absolute baller!!! Great pick for the Lynx.
No doubt Indiana and LA did well, but Chicago is going to be a problem with Cardoso AND Reese! Wooo! Would not want to play inside against that.
Can we say we are wittness the beginning of a new era the wnba bout to blow up big big
Flame vs Sky! Clark vs Resse and Cardoso! Reminiscent of those Bird/Magic/Jordan days! I’m tuned in!
Indiana were 10th last year . The coaches don’t come across well.
Stop including men’s division 1 basketball, because there is no comparison!
A'ja Wilson and Elizabeth Kitley in Las Vegas. Twin towers for sure
If Kitley can rehab successfully and stay healthy. Fingers crossed.🤞🏽
Now we all know why Brink went number 2 in this draft 😢😢😢😢😢 she’s the Curry’s God child 😮😮😮 thank God she got help with Ms. Jackson ❤
Yo angel should have been higher in the ranking this rigged this shit
Her draft stock dropped like her gpa👁👄👁
Don't know about anybody else but I have never watched an WNBA game but I will be watching Caitlin Clark this year
Congratulations Ladies...Looking forward for you set the basketballs world on fire
This year's WNBA draft has a special vibe to it. Yeah I know, Caitlin, but it was more than just her. Good vibes all around though.
Why Minnesota Trade number 7 to Chicago for #8. They coulda get Angel Reese. Smh 🤦
Mannnnn😞😡
Happy they didn't get Reese! Reeves is not the coach.
Angel can’t see Pili bfr😂 matter fact Pili should’ve gone before Reese and not #7 either
So who were the losers? Another lying title.
that's what I was wondering lol
Dallas Wings
Winners was Definitely Chicago and las Vegas aces and loser's was sparks Im not big on brink I based off how she played in the tournament I'm surprised her draft stock didn't drop to 3-4
She had 17-15 in the first round it was against a D2 lvl team and 2nd round she had 8-8 and semi finals she had 13-9 points and rebounds
@@Lilquan2004the losers were definitely not the sparks. I swear yall just be saying any damn thing
Anyone excited yet? I live in Phoenix and have 2 games circled already. And I am off work on both 😄those days!
Let's go, Aces!!! We turning up once again. Our roster is impeccable. So much potential, so many great picks. We going 3 for 3 because we're a dynasty!!
The league as a whole will get very interesting with all the talent, though. Especially with Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Kamilla Cardoso. This draft class has a lot to offer and will keep growing the league. The W is going to continue to get exciting with years to come. I'm excited for the 2027 Draft Class too.
Rickea Jackson is my early pick for Rookie of the Year
Why Dallas didn't get Marquesha Davis is the biggest draft blunder of the draft.
Should change the title bc this is probably the most attention Women’s Basketball has gotten in years respectfully 🗣️💯
Reece at Forward with Cordosa at Center! They just need a capable PG with high basket ball iQ amd 2 brilliant shooting guards. 🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯
I did not hear any losers, but Phoenix is certainly one, not having a pick until the third round. And they had a dismal season last year.
Watched the WNBA draft for the first time in its entirety.Looking forward to attending game this season.
LA, CHI, and Dallas having 6/12 picks is crazy imho. Especially when its only 12 teams.
Chi Town is about ready to run for a chip
Rickea making Rocky Top Proud!
I want to see Chicago now and I think WNBA is going to get some attention now and maybe be on tv more
The biggest winner of the draft is LA . Rickea Jackson is the steal of the draft
Sparks misses out on this one
Lets go LA Sparks great draft
Great informative sports reporting
this draft class needs the "Slam" magazine photo shoot like the 1996 NBA draft class.
Excellent job, WNBA!!
I can’t describe what the feeling is but this feels like some anime levels type of shift. Got the Old Regime ie. Taurasi, Candace. The Present Regime ie. Stewart, A’Ja, Ionescu & the Newest Regime ie. Clark,Reese,Cardoso,Brink,etc. Tuning in as soon as it’s May
If they lowered the rim before the season opener, that seasoner opener may even rival NBA playoffs viewership
Unpopular opinion -- LA Sparks won the draft. Rickea Jackson is about to be the best wing player in the league. She didn't get a lot of attention but she's a clutch player who's scoring will free up her teammates. I was sure the Sky were going to take her at #3 but when she fell to the Sparks, LA won the draft hands down. Brink needs to get stronger with the ball and finish better, but the fact that she can shoot the 3 makes her special offensively and she's got great defensive instincts.
Congrats
Title says "Winners & Losers"........I waited for the losers but there weren't any. I guess I got sucked in.
Great to see women's basketball finally receiving their shine!
Indiana Fever NOT Pacers!
The sky got a frontline and then some its gonna be problems for the league, they need to get vandersloot back now that they actually got pieces
Any opposition that takes Caitlin lightly, plan or no plan, will feel the burn. Caitlin will shoot if defense dont guard.
Fact
Really, I saw that game against UConn and they guarded her very well and she had issues making her basket.
The W has GREAT defenders. She will still do decent though.
They ran 2 or 3 players at caitland for almost the entire game
Yeah since the nba is rigged ive been watching wnba and its low-key better just the effort to play hard every game is crazy. Sad to say the nba is a money grab now😢
Indiana could go deep in the playoffs right now.
The only other real possibility for ROY besides CC is Cardoso.
Got Damn it Sparks. I wanted Reese!
Will Cardoso and Reese start?
Why Gabbie Marshall didnt get selected. Its too bad. She's good. I hope eventually she gets on. If not get overseas and make some bread.
she is married and studying biomedic stuff.. her career ended that night in newyork
So she’s not going to WNBA I thought she was ??!!!
@@dr12evil I appreaciate you for the update. I didn't know. I wish her a great life....
@@dr12evilwhen did she get married 😂😂😂😂? She has a boyfriend but I don’t think they got engaged yet
Gabbie Marshall has an unusual pretty face with gorgeous eyes and flawless complexion. She will be missed while continuing her college education at another school.
The Fever is going to be good. No, Amazing
Im going to watching the WNBA now.
Their salaries are what NBA players spend on meals and beverages in one outing and what QBs spend on presents for their offensive lines protecting them…some of the wnba players will earn more in endorsements
Rikea Jackson is a great player. With her size, speed, and mobility, she is going to be great. The media focused on CC 100% of time, which was unfair. This entire draft class is loaded. The WNBA needs some expansion teams so players don't have to go overseas. The fans have to support all of the teams. Good marketing will bring in revenue and help the WNBA make a profit. Hopefully the starting wage will go up. The starting pay should be 100k. Congrats to the entire 2024 WNBA draft class.❤❤❤❤
You can tell the future? Almost a year from now? You know who had the best draft before a game is even played? Wow!
It's called confidence and intuition.
Media hype. It's been going on forever for this league that no one cares about.
Cardoso may struggle with a lack of mobiity and stamina; Reese needs a shot and wing defensive skills. Both have potential, but need to improve basketball skills and be willing to help the team.
Sky are easily the winners for me. Reese and Kamilla together is a crazy get.
I agree wholeheartedly... After 7 years of playoff absence, they about to win big if they stack a cohesive starting 5 with a deep supportive bench.
IM EXCITED ABOUT CAITLIN, BUT IF I SEE THAT THE TEAM ISNT USING HER AT HER FULL POTENTIAL, I WILL NOT TUNE IN FOR ANY OF THE GAMES.
You mean let her shoot the lights out 😂
THE TITLE IS CRAZY!!!
I get the vols ain't the vols, but lord everyone sleeping on rj
LOVE the video title- thanks for the laugh! 😄
Brink or Reese for ROY, if Brink doesn't get injured. Highly doubt that in Pro ball, CC will be allowed to take a lot of "Logo 3's". Brink is a work fiend, playing club local Oregon basketball during the collegiate off /Summer season & simply putting in the work. 3 point contests vs Steph Curry & the entire Brink/Curry family dynamic/friendship definitely pushed & helped her. Amazing supportive parents as well. Sadly any of the top 10 stand a high risk of injury obviously in the pros & their expected immediate starting positions. It being an Olympic year, USA no matter what will have a very young & loaded squad. Gold medal caliber. I KNEW Cardoso would go higher than projected #7. However I question her maturity (vs Clark or Brink, & her work ethic.). Cardoso has never made any excuses for her moving to the WNBA as fast as possible, in the best situation, for the $$$$$$ to help her family in Brasil. More power to her 👍🫶. IMHO in 2-3 years, IF her drive stays strong @ the pro level after the big payday, she or Reese (less but same mental maturity issues IMO) will definitely seem like the steal of the draft. I'm very surprised Reese slid to #7 (projected as high as #3) as a 2x NCAA Champion? I understand Cardoso @ #3 due to size, last season & natural ferocity of her game but Reese #7? Clark definitely will set a rookie record for fouls vs. as she's dangerous anyplace past 1/2 Court, either shooting or distributing. Personally given the hype around Paige Buecker out of HS, I'm glad she wasn't in this draft. & Hope 1-2 solid, no injuries seasons will raise both her game & draft status. Luck to all the ladies in this draft. I'd definitely travel to a Sparks game just to watch Brink play. She embarrassed UCLA @ home! I hope they come out with Autographed & Jersey swatch cards & signed memorabilia of this entire draft as a sports memorabilia collector!
I think social media could be the WNBA's biggest asset or downfall. They just have to play it right especially with this new generation of stars coming in who come with their own following.
The LA Sparks by far had the best draft 💯
I don't see brink having the most successful rookie season out of all of them because she isn't strong and we seen how she always getting in foul trouble I think she fould out both of their last 2 tournament games
@@Lilquan2004 WNBA wont be officiated like the NCAA was. That will help some.
This is what im telling everybody
Most people really don't know how good Brink is but they will find out soon
@@phillipgarcia2809 we know how good she is but she is also inconsistent and it showed in the tournament
I’m now a big SKY fan ❤❤
Winners are mankind and the moon and the stars who shine bright in every corner on earth and dance to the macarina every chance they have
The guy omitted the French players showing he knows nothing about women's BB
Alot of US don't know yet, stop BB shaming
All women won as a whole from themselves and all women lost from WNBA as the organization is paying these women a misery for salaries. We, as collective sport fans need to change that by supporting their games much more and demanding more from WNBA.
The wnba is on the come up
Sabrina Ionescu v Caitlin Clark. Is like, LeBron v MJ23.
Lebron ruined the NBA.
Chicago's going to be hard to beat in the future
The WNBA has a total of 144 player positions. Several teams can’t afford to fill their full player allowance now. Who is getting cut.
Chicago getting the female versions of MJ and Kobe. Can't wait for some amazing games!
To all the haters: I am glad the WNBA is becoming more feminine! This attracts men -- worldwide!!! The ratings are going to be through the roof!!!
Facts
These young ladies are ballers and beautiful.
@troyortega4494 the current WNBA has some very pretty ladies. Plus, do men watch the men's game because of the attractiveness of the players? Or course not, they watch for the entertainment value. The WNBA has gotten a bad rap, the games are entertaining.
Exactly 😅😅😅😅😅
I thought about that too. I know what the reputation has been but it seems like straight women are taking over the WNBA.
Winners: Iowa Chicago
Losers: Minnesota
Who Did Rebeka M From Ohio State University Get Drafted By?
Isn't Caitlin's BF working for the Pacers??
Yep.
Looking forward to following Nika and Aaliyah in their next chapter of their career. Gonna miss them at Uconn 😢
