- The WNBA has a bright future, and everybody thinks it's because of rookies Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, but what nobody is talking about is the rest of the 2024 WNBA Draft class. Which I believe has the potential to be generational and change the WNBA forever. In this video, we breakdown, analyse every WNBA rookie drafted in the first round, and how they fit with their new WNBA teams.

Do not let these losers bully you to stop making wnba content. I’m enjoying the vids btw.
Ngl prior to this video, I checked out a few WNBA games for the first time yesterday. It was a lot better than I thought it would be just less flashy. I plan to watch more games.
Why? It’s boring af
i like the wnba but dont act like you were a day 1 fan
Yup CAITLIN CLARK IS A REAL QUEEN
@ChefChevyTv Queen of flop
I watched cuz of Caitlin Clark and i stayed for Cameron Brink...
Real
Amen brother.
No doubt
Did t she get hurt?
if the LA Sparks come to my town and Cameron Brink is playing ill get floor seats!
Hell yeah, Brink is amazing!!❤
I wish I could. I live far, far away from any WNBA arena. 😔
@@abtrtomr with the league expanding, hopefully you'll have a team near you soon! Just gotta keep supporting the gals. Dont forget, Toronto and SF are on their way soon!
Touching story
Cameron Brink is a STAR
u never had a wnba draft with so much talent, hype and mainstream attention
All lies... except the hype part
@@deonlepharaohexactly, just the hype!
@@otisjenkinsjr.3556 your agreeing with him then you can't take out hype alone his statement is a full sentence saying that there has never been all three of those points in that combination and magnitude
@@deonlepharaoh well can you drop some knowledge then. which classes were better? I'm sure that OG class is in there but who else.
@dark3rthanshadows Hype and attention for sure
Angel Reese is not a center & was a wing in HS but played in the paint for LSU.changed her game for the team
That’s why I’m excited to see what Witherspoon has cooked for her. Are they developing her 3 at workouts? I’m hoping they working on something. I can see her getting better and better
She is a forward who can play the 3, 4, and 5 positions. But is a 4 as per WNBA standards. And she will be fine in the WNBA. Yes, Catlin Collins is better on offense, but Reese is better on defense and rebounding. She can get offense rebounds and put backs. Rebounds are important because there are always missed shots and people take this for granted. It is rebounds and defense for the most part that wins championships. Hopefully, Indiana's other players can paly better defense and rebound the ball. Relying on CC's offense along will not win many games for them!
She's a racist POS!
Reese is absolute garbage. Dresses like a street walker too.
You don't know what you are talking about! Reese became the only player in the NBA, WNBA, women’s NCAA and men’s NCAA history to pocket at least 30+ points with 15+ rebounds, 4+ assists, and 4+ steals. She did achieve the feat while having a shoot over 80%.. All her team needs to do is feed the ball inside out to both she and Cordoso, that will open shots for the two of them and their teammates. They would be a Two Headed Dragon!
Brink is so Fine she's gonna do big things in the League too 💯
Yes. She is AWESOME.
im tryna climb that tree frfr
I know one thing,the Sparks need to put Rickea Jackson in the starting lineup. She was the 4th pick in this draft class and they got her coming off the damn bench. She was considered the best all around player along with Brink in the draft. Rickea’s talent is being wasted by the Sparks. They could easily be among the best duos in the league. 🤔
True dat. Not sure if they did before today, but today (May 28), they did. And they won vs Indiana - in Indiana. I like this lineup. No Center, but they have 3 point shooters at all 5 positions. The starters went 9 of 14 from 3 (64%).
Cameron Brink
Rickea Jackson
Dearica Hamby
Kia Nurse
Lexi Brown
Brink and Jackson will be the forward pairing eventually.
@@the5gen Hopefully, they are definitely wasting her talent.
Thanks for posting this! I learned about some players I wasn't familiar with (especially Alissa Pili). Looking forward to seeing how this season goes.
1996 NBA draft class was by far the best to exist in the NBA. And it's not even really close. Allen Iverson, Marcus Camby, Shareef Abdur- Rahim, Stephen Marbury, Ray Allen, Antoine Walker, Kobe Bryant, Peja Stojakovich, Steve Nash, Jermaine O'Neil, Derrick Fisher, Zydrunis Ilgalskus, Lorenzen Wright, Malik Rose.. This was a packed draft class in the nba. David Stem was proud of this one in 96. Weren't they the draft class with the most awards between them?
1984 was the best class . Way better quality of players. Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Charles Barkley, John Stockton, Sam Perkins, Kevin Willis, Alvin Robertson, Otis Thorpe, Jay Humphries, Vern Fleming, Jerome Kersey, Michael Cage, Jeff Turner, Tony Campbell...
I'd trade them all for forward from nc
Thanks for the WNBA coverage. As a brand new fan myself, i NEED videos like this to help me get the info i need to know. Plz keep the coverage!
Will do!
This class is stacked with prospect on paper tho
In 10 years time we will know who will come up top
But as for Caitlin she had to take curry route if she wanna succeed more
Glad to see a video like this finally somebody talking about Alissa Pili she’s tuff 🌺
Please continue doing WNBA! Thank you so much
the last time i was this early my mom had a c-section
bro wtf is this 😂
Hahahaha
Y’all wilin 😂😂😂😂
Cameron Brink can be a WNBA part-timer, full-time super model
she's too good to be part time lmao
Brink is so good looking she could lose every game and I would still watch 😂
Interesting. U like the whole 12yr old boy body type??
Please make more wnba content. I can’t watch the games, but your edits and detailed commentary makes me interested. I’ll watch these videos and I think others will too
There u go ruclips.net/video/50ntaAP3YPA/видео.htmlsi=ZyPfbQnsm7Oh6ofu
Awesome content bro. Can't wait for the upcoming WNBA season.
It’s because of gambling, but I will say I’m actually a fan of some of their game, like Napheesa Collier, Dawanna Bonner, Arike O, Nneka Ogwumike, and Kahleah Copper.
Keep it coming man
They got baddies now
and all with nice legs most important stat
Love all your details -- smart and insightful. Thanks.
GREAT REPORTING & INFO MY BROTHER 💯💪🏾💯
Thanks
Aja Wilson was six four in the third grade. That's a big lady.
Wait.....what!??? Lol 😂
Stop lying dippy
Love your commentary! ,+ comic book feel
I absolutely love Angel's game, really enjoy watching your analysis of her.
So if Reese was such a good high school and college player, why all the hate as if she is not good? I think she will be just fine and may surprise people. I love rooting for the underdog
If dhe fixes that shot she's gonna make you forget Candace Parker retired. Cuz that what her game will be like
Reese is a great player. It’s her attitude that people don’t like. Caitlyn is my number one player to watch and Reese is next. I think Reese will adapt to the WNBA easily.
Me too. Go Ms. Angel Reese.
@lindysmallwood2039 me too! They both are firey on the court but only have positive things to say about eachother off the court. I love competitive people.
Dkm has been the best basketball journalist on the planet for like 2 years. Very creative and I'm glad someone is supporting the woman
Thank you
After watching Boston's Abysmal performance in the first two Indiana Fever games, I can safely say that Camilla will easily Eat Her Lunch
Well you'll be wrong
@@deonlepharaoh We Shall Soon See, Puddin
Caitlyn Clark is the light at the end of the tunnel for the lackluster WNBA and she'll bring more money to the league until she'll retire. 🤗
That light is getting dimmer and dimmer 😂
@@Odell153No thanks to the in-over-her-head coach, who doesn't have a clue what to do with Clark, other than to try and hobble her and take away the thing people want to see her do!
@@kingskidgirl2 CC needs to have players around her who can play some defense and rebound, something that Reese's team has. CC's offense alone will not help her team!
With the 28M contract as well as others, topping $50M plus, I think Caitlin can do whatever she wants. Nike’s Contact to be renewed toward the end of 2024, who knows what she’ll be worth. Remember, many pro’s never even see 1 Million in the WNBA ❤
Love this video. It’s refreshing to see a positive WNBA video. Good stuff man💪
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great Video!!!!
All the buzz surrounding Caitlin Clark is what has gotten the WNBA on my radar the past week or two but the more I watch videos like the ones featured on this channel, the more the league is sparking my interest beyond Caitlin Clark. Keep it up and hopefully the WNBA can get more attention because of the game of basketball and not just petty drama.
🙏🏾 GREAT REPORTING & INFO 💯💪🏾💯💪🏾💯
Much appreciated!
Aliyah Edwards and Kate Martin are also doing well for their teams despite being in opposite side of the standings. Cardoso is already showing her value despite a late start and minimal playing time. Brink needs more offensive touches. Reese is playing well within their system. CC looks tired and frustrated.
thanks for covering this! i can't wait to see how much they all improve by the time it's the wnba playoffs.
Bruv is clearly a scott and im here for it! Lol love the scotland yard accent 😂
I see an Injury machine with Reece, it's just a matter of time. If she does not start to work on her core and strengthen her ligaments (yoga). Her temper will be returned real quick, when she picks on the wrong person. Watch! she picks on those smaller but will never confront those taller or bigger than her.
yo DKM, you forgot to mention the 1996 Draft Class in the beginning!!
Can't wait for Paige Bueckers to enter the pros. She may not be the 3-point shooter that CC is but from what I've seen,, she has a stronger mid-range game.
Paige has elite skills both sides of the ball unlike Clark.....Clark in colkege shot 37% from 3 and 45% from the field.....Paige shoots 42% from 3 and 53% from the field.... .Paige is a better shooter than Clark......Paige's shot selections is far better than Clarks......
remember this, Paige shared the Freshman Player of the Year award with Clark. This was before Paige was injured. So yeah Paige is worlds better.
@@MrSoulauctioneerno she didn’t…Paige alone holds the record of being the first freshman ever to be Player of the Year…
@@michellesmith9522 Bueckers shared two major NCAA Division I freshman of the year awards with Caitlin Clark of Iowa-the Tamika Catchings Award, presented by the USBWA, and the WBCA Freshman of the Year award.
Is 73% in the free throwline supposed to be good??
NEW SUBSCRIBER💯 💪🏾💯✊🏾💯
Welcome!!
Where there's WOKE there's piss poor attitudes.. That's why people love Caitlin.. CLASS
You mean this attitude "I can't lose because in china fall a bag of rise from the table, that's why" right?
Calm down as you can see this attitude is pushing her in a brighter spotlight which even more showcase her !!!basketball!!! skills.
This attitude (it's not me and it's never about basketball) is preventing them from raising thier skills, knowledge and so on, also doin basketball!
The learning process starts with life and end with it.
Did U know CC did the John Cenna "U cant see me" 2Xs to players she beat 1st & that's why Angel R. did it back to only 1 person: her (but it took a year & tjst video for CC to admit it - while AReese was being called UNclassy. Someone on t.v. went back & found the video of CC. doing it.
Loving Ur content!!! Lets goooo wnba!!!💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥💕✨️💫⭐️💜💕
Thank gou
Excellent analysis
Dude why the F*CK am I SO interested in the WNBA now. I literally didn't care about it until these rookies showed up and now I'm like... actually wanting to watch this rivalry happen. I swear to god if the WNBA does not capitalize on this opportunity, I don't know if it will ever happen again.
Good video🎉
Caitlin Clark got me peeking at the WNBA but my eyes have turned to Brink. #TeamBrink
The smartest thing to have done was get half rookie and the other half with the top pros to showcase the talent.
One other thing that impressed me with Cameron Brink and probably dosn't count but I apreciated was her giving hugs to Caitliin Clark and #11 (sorry I didn't know who she was) after the game. Sportsmanship or Sportswomanship was great to see.
i didnt know who steph curry was, until caitlin jolted me last october, but ..now i know this: the super pretty girl is Lexie Hull. 😁
Subscribed! WNBA content is appreciated. I’m a NBA guy but Clark and Brink are bringing me around. Reese should probably be jailed.
How did the Chicago sky end up with two number one pics like that I mean, that’s crazy who got traded?
People act like Giannis isn't a ball handler who runs his offense 😂
Very interesting.
Yeah, there was unbelievable talent in that draft class and with all the focus on the sport that Kaitlyn Clark brought that new batch of stars are going to have a lot of new fans because of it so that helps them out, but yeah, that is one of the best draft classes I’ve ever seen out of the WNBA
Cardoso 5 points with 5 rebounds avg, 46& from the field 50% free throw, she is 6'7 btw
1996 nba draft Allen Iverson, Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash, Ray Allen, Camby, Marbury, Peja Stojavic, Jermaine O’Neal, Derrick Fisher … how did you not include that 96 draft which is better than the 03 draft
'96 is the greatest NBA draft class ever!
1984 is better MJ hakeem barkley Stockton NUFF SAID
You can’t talk about Reese being undersized then compare her to Gianis bro 🤦♂️
Bro you can say the same thing about any wnba draft class...this one isnt the best just cause you just started paying attention
Angel Reese is a star already. Her game is consistent. She is a power foward
I don't know why I'd have to be living under a rock never heard of her
@5:10 is that deebo?
With all that talent on that team, they should be playing so much better they need a new coach or something to get them playing as a team
Hey, what about the 1985 draft?
Clark is currently leading the Fever in points, assists, steals, blocks, and defensive rebounds. With stats like those, she's either a superstar, her team sucks, or both.
they should have taken all rookies and put them on exspansion team
🔥🔥
Man said Chi Sky were top 10 in rebounds 😂. There is only 12 teams 😅
My comment is, you better get the best of CC this year because she will own you from then on.
what sad is that the number THREE overall female ncaa scorer AND all defensive player Dyaisha Fair who was drafted #16 cant get a job, but IF you take the time to watch her game you will see she is a better overall player than the number 1 pick. she did this while only standing 5'3".
Magic / Larry 1979 Made the come back of the NBA You area young buck I get it
I know
Caitlyn Clark NOT angel reece. Caitlyn got taken by last place team and other teams didn't play their top players for 4 quarters hence why they all had high ppg's. just watch them play.
WNBA Expansion proposed: San Framcosco Athena's and Boston Colleens..
Why Caitlin Clark got Green Eyes 😭
cardosa got bruiser HOF
Are you kidding yourself , biscuit ? Where you been ? How long you been watching women bball ? Where was you when Parker and that class came out ?
All 3 of these ladies should have been on team U.S.A. These 3 ladies are the reason WNBA is getting so much attention. Why would you snub the leagues best 3 rookies.
Cameron in LA is a no brainer. If I'm the Sparks, tank for Paige and Juju. Trifecta
If Juju somehow ends up on the Sparks come 2027, I will be so happy
CC 22 👑💯🔥🔥🔥🔥. Period
People will wake up. I did soley because of this draft. And it got me to look up who's already in the league; baddies with skill. Plum, Wilson, Parker, Stewart.
I'm not a mega fan, gonna take time. But I can see the light for thile league and they need to keep on with what they're doing.
Duke gonna be interesting this coming year.
I still dont get how you get praised for grabbing the rebound off of your crappy first shot and it makes uou a great offensive rebounder. If she didnt miss the initial shot then you wouldnt get the offensive rebound.
ESPN: Clark became the first rookie in WNBA history to record 150 points, 50 rebounds and 50 assists in a 10-game span.
😂
Thats just 15 5 and 5 I dont think that is accurate
Reese is great at rebounding her own misses but she would be a lot better if she just made her shots to begin with.
They have had talented players before them What are yall talking about?
Camilla didn't start last year. This year she was the 5 all the time.
Wnba players better start reposting this 😂wtf are they waiting on.. oh yeah they’re all for self
Knock downs don't count. It's basketball. CC has class.
Brink,Brink,Brink!! Let’s Goooo
I have know problem with you making this video but i do wanna throw an idea out there since you like making wnba videos... How about you make a video or videos talking about worst WNBA draft classes /biggest WNBA draft bust. I've never seen anybody tackle that subject and I think you're just the man to do it. 💯🙏
Also I do have to say the WNBA has a problem with young talent they seem to give up on their young prospects way too easy and a good example of that is the 2021 wnba draft ( Charli Collier) was the number yet she had no real time to grow 💯
Sounds more like you just wanna sht on them
@lutherwalker7639 not really problem is there is only 144 spots. They only have 12 teams they are in the middle of fixing that the wnba announced that they will be adding 6 new teams over the next 5 or 6 years. The 1st 1 starts in the 2025 season
Yeah!!!!!! Alissa Pili getting the spotlight!!!!! She’s tough! She’s going to do great things!!!
How you leave out 1996 draft??? SCRUB!!
You’re forgetting that millions didn’t tune into WNBA until Caitlin started her rookie year, sold out arenas, fan base, millions in contracts. Take Caitlin out of the WNBA, the league is back to low viewership. Right or wrong, it’s the fans who will decide their fate 💞
don't tell me how great Reese is going to do against taller players. When she was the team star, she couldn't stop undersized Iowa.
didnt her team win the ncaa vwomen championship over iowa in 2023 you sound crazy catilin aint got no rings🤣🤣🤣
Caitlin might not have her ring being in her rookie year, but she’s over 50 Million dollars richer in the contracts she got and therefore the highest paid 😂 Wait until next season and these contracts renew, then you’ll see some serious money flying around 💞
Never forget. The WNBA started in 2024
It’s Aaliyah edwards bud….. Not sure if your joke about the referees in attendance when she makes the screen was suppose to be funny ….
Yeah, I’m not a fan of angel Reese for the simple fact she transferred away from my team Maryland. and it’s because everything didn’t revolve around her there. It was a team environment, not a player environment.
Cameron Brink is bae 🔥
Caitlin Clark and Cameron Brink is the only reason I now watch the wnba. But have say all of this hate at Clark is because theirs "NOT" one individual(s) in the wnba, who's on her level. The jealousy of Clark is why women will never get the respect they whine about. Clark is the Michael Jordan version of the wnba and has already cemented her history in women's basketball and hasn't even finished her season.
