WNBA Draft 2024: How to watch, full order, and more

The 2023-2024 women’s college basketball tournament just ended.

But for many of the players who shined over the course of that tournament, their basketball careers are about to take the next step.

The 2024 WNBA Draft takes place later tonight, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn. This will be the 29th draft in WNBA history, and perhaps one of the most anticipated. It will also be the first time since 2016 that fans will be able to attend the draft.

While there is every expectation that Caitlin Clark will be the first player taken, with the Indiana Fever holding the first-overall selection, there is no shortage of talent in this draft class.

Here is how to watch, a list of the invited players, and the full WNBA Draft order.

ESPN will broadcast the 2024 WNBA Draft, with a half-hour preview show starting at 7:00 p.m. Eastern followed by the draft itself, which begins at 7:30 p.m. Eastern.

Those interested in streaming the WNBA Draft can do so via ESPN+.
