WNBA draft: Mystics, Storm, Lynx and Wings get top marks
The UCLA Bruins made history with six players taken in the WNBA draft on Monday, and two of them will be part of a rebuilding Washington Mystics team that earned our top grade. Center Lauren Betts (No. 4 pick) and forward Angela Dugalic (No. 9) will team up in the nation’s capital after helping lead the Bruins to the NCAA championship on April 5.
The Mystics missed the playoffs the past two seasons, going 16-28 in 2025 and 14-26 in 2024. They have not advanced past the first round of the postseason since winning the franchise’s only title in 2019.
But they got two lottery picks last year in guard Sonia Citron and forward Kiki Iriafen, both of whom were All-Stars as rookies, plus No. 6 Georgia Amoore, a point guard who sat out the season because of a knee injury.
Add in their three first-rounders this season — Washington also picked forward Cotie McMahon at No. 11 — and the Mystics have an intriguing young core. Here is how we graded Washington and the rest of the league on draft night.

No. 4: Lauren Betts, UCLA, C, 6-7
No. 9: Angela Dugalic, UCLA, PF, 6-4
No. 11: Cotie McMahon, Ole Miss, SF, 6-0
No. 19: Cassandre Prosper, Notre Dame, SG, 6-3
No. 30: Darianna Littlepage-Buggs, Baylor, PF, 6-1
No. 34: Rori Harmon, Texas, PG, 5-6
Washington fired general manager Jamila Wideman on April 6 and said coach Sydney Johnson would take control of basketball operations with support from the Mystics’ staff. That seemed an odd decision so close to the draft, but it didn’t hurt what Washington accomplished Monday. The Mystics had the most picks of any team, and though it’s unlikely they all find a spot on the roster, their top three should contribute this season.
Betts’ ability to hit face-up shots, along with her low-block offense and top-level defense, made her a strong choice even as so-called traditional centers are less popular picks in the WNBA now. Dugalic is a type of player who seems to be coveted in the WNBA: a big shooter who can do everything well. Her stats don’t necessarily stand out, but you see her value when watching her play. McMahon is undersized as a forward, but she has been preparing for a pro role more on the perimeter. Plus, she’s extremely strong, and that will help her at the next level. Prosper is another big player who can shoot 3-pointers. Littlepage-Buggs is an exceptionally good rebounder, and Harmon was the heart of the Texas team that reached the Final Four the past two years.
There are a lot of options for Johnson. But give this team a little while to jell over the next couple of seasons and we’ll see what it can do.

No. 3: Awa Fam Thiam, Spain, C, 6-4
No. 8: Flau’jae Johnson, SG, 5-10, LSU
No. 14: Taina Mair, Duke, PG, 5-9
No. 39: Grace VanSlooten, Michigan State, PF, 6-3
With players such as 6-foot-4 Ezi Magbegor and 6-6 Dominique Malonga on the roster, it might not seem like the Storm needed Fam Thiam. But the 19-year-old has such promise that they didn’t want to bypass her. Plus, can you really have too many talented young forward/centers?
The Storm also needed a point guard, and Mair brings good defense and playmaking. The Storm initially selected Marta Suarez at No. 16, the first pick of the second round. Then they dealt her to Golden State for Johnson, who has a lot of upside as a perimeter scorer and defender. The Storm are in a rebuilding mode, and they got three rookies who should be able to help them. VanSlooten is a reliable post player but does not shoot 3-pointers. Still, she’s not a bad pick for so late in the draft.

No. 2: Olivia Miles, TCU, PG, 5-10
No. 45: Lani White, Utah, SG, 5-11
The Lynx got the No. 2 pick thanks to a savvy trade with Chicago last year — and it paid off because they really needed a good, young point guard, and they got the best one in this draft with Miles. An oft-heard player comparison is Las Vegas veteran Chelsea Gray, who has the ability to make everyone around her better. Miles’ court vision is already pro level, and she can score and rebound, too, as her triple-double prowess in college proved. Defense will be Miles’ biggest need for improvement; she will benefit from working with the Lynx staff.
White might not make the roster, but 3-point shooting is her best strength. She made 72 as a senior shooting 40.4% from beyond the arc.

No. 1: Azzi Fudd, UConn, SG, 5-11
No. 31: Zee Spearman, Tennessee, PF, 6-4
Once the Wings’ free agency moves were made, it became clear that they would pick Fudd as a strong complement to Arike Ogunbowale and Paige Bueckers in the backcourt. The Wings added veteran posts Alanna Smith and Jessica Shepard and retained Ogunbowale. All those moves create a team that should be stronger defensively and hard to guard with so many high-skilled perimeter threats.
Spearman has size and shot-blocking ability, but she didn’t finish shots during her senior season the way she had earlier in her career. Ultimately, this grade is based entirely on adding Fudd, whose 3-point shooting could help the Wings get back to the playoffs.
![]()
No. 10: Raven Johnson, South Carolina, PG, 5-9
No. 25: Justine Pissott, Vanderbilt, SG, 6-4
No. 40: Jessica Timmons, Alabama, SG, 5-8
The Fever are guard heavy, so they might have considered pivoting to a post player for one of these picks. But we have no qualms with taking Johnson in the first round. She was the best available defensive guard, one who can guard a variety of players — and she’s a good rebounder at her size, too. She also had her best offensive season as a senior, averaging 9.9 points and 5.1 assists. Her energy will fit great with the Fever.
Pissott is an interesting pick because of her 3-point shooting at her size. She made a career-best 95 3s this season, shooting 42.2% from beyond the arc. Timmons is also a good long-range shooter, making 74 3s this past season as she averaged a career-best 16.3 points.
![]()
No. 12: Nell Angloma, France, SF, 5-11
No. 15: Gianna Kneepkens, UCLA, SG, 5-11
No. 18: Charlisse Leger-Walker, UCLA, PG, 5-10
No. 37: Taylor Bigby, TCU, SG, 6-1
Angloma was among the promising young European players expected to be selected in the first round, and the Sun were likely happy she was still available at No. 12. UCLA teammates Kneepkens and Leger-Walker bring strong 3-point shooting and playmaking from the national champions.
The Sun took Serah Williams, who played one season at UConn, with the No. 33 pick, then traded her to Portland for Bigby, who had her best season as a senior at TCU, averaging 8.2 points and hitting 65 3-pointers.

No. 13: Madina Okot, South Carolina, C, 6-6
No. 28: Indya Nivar, North Carolina, SG, 5-10
No. 43: Kejia Ran, China, SG, 5-8
Okot is still developing player with only two years of experience in the U.S. college system. But her propensity for double-doubles and ability to get up and down the court well for her size made her a first-rounder. She was projected to go a little higher in ESPN’s final mock draft, so the Dream’s grade rests on the belief that she is going to work out well for them.
Nivar was a surprise; she spent her first season at Stanford and the last three at North Carolina. She had her best season as a senior, averaging 10.6 points. She has not been a good shooter, hitting 25.4% of 3s and 57.3% of free throws in her career. But the Dream value her defense and energy. Ran has international experience and is known for her defensive skills, too.

No. 20: Ta’Niya Latson, South Carolina, SG, 5-8
No. 24: Chance Gray, Ohio State, SG, 5-9
No. 35: Amelia Hassett, Kentucky, PF, 6-4
The Sparks didn’t have a first-round pick, so getting two scoring guards in the second round was what they needed. Latson was draft eligible by age in 2025 and likely would have been picked in the first round then after leading Division I in scoring while at Florida State. But she’s a better all-around player now after her senior season with South Carolina and will be looking to prove that in the WNBA.
Gray played two years at Oregon and then finished with two at Ohio State, averaging 14.7 points this past season while making a career-best 85 3-pointers and shooting 40.5% from beyond the arc. Hassett played just two years in college but stood out with her 3-point shooting, making 55 last season and 99 this season.
![]()
No. 5: Gabriela Jaquez, UCLA, SG, 6-0
No. 21: Latasha Lattimore, Ole Miss, PF, 6-4
No. 32: Tonie Morgan, Kentucky, PG, 5-9
This draft’s success for the Sky depends on two things: Will Jaquez live up to the promise of a No. 5 pick, and will Lattimore be the best version of herself that we saw in her last two seasons of college? Jaquez brings a ton of energy to an organization that really needs that kind of player; she could quickly become a fan favorite. Lattimore is well traveled; she started her college career at Texas, then played at Miami, Virginia and Ole Miss. Her best statistical season was with the Cavaliers, but she had some good moments this past season with the Rebels, too.
Morgan played just one season at Kentucky after three at Georgia Tech, standing out in 2025-26 with her 7.9 assists average.

No. 6: Kiki Rice, UCLA, PG, 5-11
No. 22: Teonni Key, Kentucky, PF, 6-5
No. 26: Saffron Shiels, Australia, SG, 6-2
No. 36: Charlise Dunn, Davidson, SG, 6-1
Rice had her best college season as a senior and played her way into a higher draft slot than expected. She did everything better this season, averaging 14.9 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.3 assists while shooting 38.5% from beyond the arc and 90.2% from the free throw line. She wants the ball in her hands to make the right play in crunch time.
Key has potential with her size, but she will need to improve offensively. Shiels and Dunn are big shooting guards from Australia, so Tempo coach Sandy Brondello, the longtime Australian national team coach, knows their ability well.

No. 29: Janiah Barker, Tennessee, PF, 6-4
No. 44: Jordan Obi, Kentucky, SG, 6-1
Without much draft capital — late picks in the second and third rounds — not a lot expected was expected from the Aces. Barker has talent, averaging a career-best 14.3 points this season for the Lady Vols, her third school, having previously played at Texas A&M and UCLA. Obi spent three seasons at Penn, was out injured in 2024-25, then played her last season with Kentucky, averaging 9.0 points and 6.0 rebounds.
![]()
No. 7: Iyana Martin, Spain, PG, 5-9
No. 17: Frieda Buhner, Germany, PF, 6-1
No. 33: Serah Williams, UConn, C, 6-4
Portland has a plan, even though it might not be the most exciting one for the new franchise’s fans. Martin is a promising young European guard, but she won’t make her WNBA debut until 2027. Buhner is another European player most American fans probably aren’t familiar with, but she has international experience, too. Williams’ stats in her one season at UConn — 6.7 points and 4.4 rebounds — didn’t stand out the way her numbers in three seasons at Wisconsin did. But there’s enormous difference in playing for the perennially contending Huskies, and that experience should help her in the WNBA if she can make a roster.

No. 16: Marta Suarez, TCU, SF, 6-3
No. 23: Ashlon Jackson, Duke, SG, 6-0
No. 38: Kokoro Tanaka, Japan, SG, 5-8
This could all turn out OK for the Valkyries. Suarez, who played two seasons at Tennessee and two at Cal, had her best season in finishing her college career at TCU. She averaged 17.1 points and 7.4 rebounds, and is another big player who can shoot 3s (84 this past season). Jackson hit the most dramatic shot of the NCAA tournament: a buzzer-beater that eliminated LSU in the Sweet 16. She is a disruptive defensive player, although she had a stronger season as a scorer her junior year. Tanaka is a promising young guard who has played on the Japanese national team.
But the Valkyries’ low grade is in large part to how they handled draft night and the questions about it. Taking a popular player like Flau’jae Johnson with the No. 8 pick, then trading her for No. 16 pick Suarez with little explanation initially made it seem as if Golden State wasn’t as sure of what it was doing as perhaps it was. Eventually, the Valkyries spoke to ESPN’s Kendra Andrews and gave a better explanation of what happened — the teams agreed upon the trade before the draft picks were submitted — but some damage already had been done.
![]()
No. 27: Ines Pitarch-Granel, France, SF, 6-0
No. 42: Eszter Ratkai, Hungary, SG, 5-9
Like Las Vegas and New York, the Mercury didn’t have much to gain in this draft. Phoenix went for potential with two 19-year-old Europeans, and it could pay off. But it’s hard to tell now. Pitarch-Granel is averaging 5.3 points for her French club team. Ratkai is averaging 8.5 points for her Hungarian club.
![]()
No. 41: Manuela Puoch, Australia, SF, 6-1
The Liberty look solid with the team they have put together for 2026. With only one draft pick late in the third round, there was little expected impact and not much to grade Monday. Puoch is the younger sister of Nyadiew Puoch, who was drafted No. 12 in 2024 by Atlanta but hasn’t played in the WNBA yet. Nyadiew was picked by Portland in the expansion draft earlier this month.

NJ Transit CEO explains World Cup fare hike as NJ Gov again implores FIFA to pay for $150 train tickets
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
An already-expensive trip to the World Cup just got even more costly, as NJ Transit and the FIFA New York New Jersey Host Committee announced fare hikes to attend eight matches at MetLife Stadium this year.
The East Rutherford, New Jersey, stadium will host those matches, beginning June 13 and ending with the final on July 19, but a roundtrip train ticket to and from New York Penn Station and MetLife Stadium will be $150, up from the usual $12.90. Shuttles are also available for $80.
NJ Transit CEO Kris Kolluri defended the fare hikes on Friday, saying that the ultimate cost to the public transportation company should not be the burden of New Jersey commuters.

“It is an exciting moment for New Jersey to showcase New Jersey’s diversity as well as its economic standing in the country and in the world. Equally important, she has said that New Jersey commuters cannot and will not subsidize the movement of fans going to the game, because that would not be fair,” Kolluri said, reiterating that the tournament will cost NJ Transit $48 million.
“In order to move 40,000 people and to pay for the cost of $6 million (per game), we have to charge $150.”
The CEO said that if the regular $12.90 fare were put in place, commuters would subsidize the $48 million bill by 92%.
“No one that I have spoken to thinks that’s fair or reasonable. Commuters in New Jersey should not carry the cost years into the future for a wonderful event, no doubt. But the fans going to the games should burden the cost, that’s all we’re trying to say,” Kolluri added.
Days after New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill said that FIFA should pay for commuters’ costs, she did so again shortly after the fare hikes were announced.
“New Jersey is ready and excited to host eight FIFA World Cup matches this summer – including the World Cup Final,” Sherrill began in a social media post Friday.

“Since I took office, my Administration has been working to prepare for the biggest sporting event our state has ever seen – and today, NJ TRANSIT released their Mobility Plan to move 40,000 fans to and from each match safely and efficiently. In the FIFA World Cup agreement that my Administration inherited, FIFA put zero dollars towards transporting World Cup fans. It also eliminated parking at MetLife Stadium, putting the burden of transporting four times more matchday riders than typical for an event at the stadium on NJ TRANSIT. This agreement will cost NJ TRANSIT at least $48 million, while FIFA is positioned to make $11 billion during the World Cup.
“As I have said repeatedly, FIFA should cover the cost of transporting its fans. If it won’t, we will not be subsidizing World Cup ticket holders on the backs of New Jerseyans who rely on NJ TRANSIT every day.”
The fare hikes, however, did not please FIFA. In a scathing statement to Fox News Digital, World Cup COO Heimo Schirgi said the “current pricing model will have a chilling effect,” including congestion, late arrivals, and “broader ripple effects that ultimately diminish the economic benefit and lasting legacy the entire region stands to gain from hosting the World Cup.”
Schirgi also ripped Sherrill for her “unprecedented” ask to make FIFA pay for the commuting costs.
“No other global event, concert or major sporting promoter has faced such a demand. While FIFA is projected to generate approximately $11 billion in revenue, not profit, as the Governor incorrectly claims, FIFA has always been a not-for-profit organization as per our statutes. Revenues from the FIFA World Cup are reinvested into developing the game of football, particularly for youth and women, worldwide,” Schirgi said.

Parking has been barred from MetLife Stadium, and rideshare will be extremely limited, both of which will result in increased NJ Transit commutes.
New York Penn Station will also only be open to matchgoers beginning four hours prior to the start of games, and fans were urged to avoid nonessential NJ Transit travel on game days.

It was a rematch of their brawl at Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor event. Marshall went on the attack first, throwing in all kinds of foreign objects into the ring, including a piece of wood wrapped with barbed wire, a table, a cane, chairs and even a door was brought into the match.
Hauser was able to regain momentum in the match. He set up the barbed-wire object in the corner. Marshall countered and was trying to whip Hauser into the barbed wire. However, Hauser stopped himself. As Marshall tried to take Hauser by surprise, the movie star avoided Marshall and tossed him into the barbed wire.
Marshall was busted open, but wasn’t done. Hauser was trying to inflict more pain. He set up a table near one corner of the ring and poured thumbtacks on top of it. Marshall was able to powerbomb Hauser through the tacked table.

Transfer rumors, news: Liverpool eye Wharton amid Man United, Real Madrid interest
Liverpool face competition from Manchester United and Real Madrid to sign Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, while Arsenal want Leicester City wonderkid Jeremy Monga. Join us for the latest transfer news and rumors from around the globe.

TRENDING RUMORS
– Liverpool lead the race to sign Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, TalkSPORT reports. Liverpool face strong competition from Manchester United and Real Madrid for the England international’s signature, while he is under contract at Selhurst Park until June 2029 and Palace are demanding a fee of at least £80 million. Curtis Jones‘ exit from Liverpool could help the club raise extra funds, and he has been linked with a move to Italian giants Internazionale.
– Arsenal are keen on signing Leicester City wonderkid Jeremy Monga, as per The Telegraph. Monga, 16, has already agreed terms on a professional contract with the Foxes, but attention from the Premier League may yet complicate matters. The winger has played 25 times in the Championship this season, scoring once and grabbing a pair of assists.
– Newcastle United‘s asking price for the transfer of Anthony Gordon this summer is around £80 million, according to iNews. Bayern Munich have serious interest in the winger and are expected to make a formal bid to sign him at the end of the season. The England international has also been linked with a move to Arsenal, while Liverpool are thought to be long-term admirers.
– Tottenham Hotspur have struck an agreement in principle to sign Bournemouth center back Marcos Senesi on a free transfer, TalkSPORT has revealed. The Argentina international is expected to make the switch to North London at the end of the season, once his contract expires, though Spurs potential relegation could complicate things. Indeed, the proposed transfer hinges on them staying up as Senesi is not prepared to play in the Championship, while Manchester United and Atletico Madrid are also tracking his development.
– Borussia Dortmund have internally discussed a move for West Ham United defender Konstantinos Mavropanos in recent weeks, Sky Germany reports. The 28-year-old is wanted by several Bundesliga and Premier League clubs after a string of impressive recent performances, and is reported to be “seeking a new challenge” so will push to leave the club at the end of the season, despite having a contract until 2028.
EXPERT TAKE
ESPN’s resident scout Tor-Kristian Karlsen looks at Adam Wharton’s skillset.
Less than two years after making his debut, Wharton is now undoubtedly one of the Premier League’s most accomplished distributors of the ball. He constantly asks to receive it and is trusted not to lose possession under pressure. Then, once in control, his pass selection is outstanding: he can hit 35-yard switches with precision, incisive line-breaks through pressure, or well-weighted deliveries played into a teammate’s stride.
The quality of Wharton’s left foot is one standout feature, though it’s also his vision and ability to “map” the play around him that is key, as they allow him to move the ball at tempo with ease and fluidity.
Wharton has also shown he is comfortable in a high-intensity style of football. Under Oliver Glasner at Palace, the England midfielder has performed in an energetic, vertical scheme, where demands on speed of thought and defensive reactions are higher. Though he was impressive last season, he has lifted his key-pass output by roughly 10% this year, while still maintaining accuracy and pass variation. Crucially, the distribution isn’t location-specific either and he is as reliable starting attacks from deep as he is contributing in the final third.
