Three South Carolina players were taken in the first round.
NEW YORK -- The Indiana Fever made the most of the first No. 1 draft pick in franchise history, selecting Aliyah Boston.
Boston, like many other players, have had to choose whether to return to college for a fifth season because of the extra year granted for the COVID-19 virus or turn pro. She decided to enter the WNBA draft, joining 111 other players to declare. "It's amazing experience really, because this group of girls have been through life together," Amihere said."These four years haven't been only about basketball. Being able to be with them on one of our biggest nights is an amazing experience."
The Wings also drafted UConn guard Lou Lopez Senechal two picks later. She had transferred to UConn after a stellar career at Fairfield. "It was a very interesting feeling," Soares said."Pure excitement going to Washington, but now getting to go to Dallas. It's going to be a great next step to the journey."Stanford guard Haley Jones went sixth to Atlanta. Indiana's Grace Berger was drafted seventh by the Fever.
