Just over a week after winning the 2026 women’s college basketball national championship, UCLA had a record five WNBA first round draft picks and six taken overall. Lauren Betts, Gabriela Jaquez and Kiki Rice were taken with picks Nos. 4-6 on Monday night. Meanwhile, UConn’s Azzi Fudd went No. 1 overall.
UCLA became the first team to have five first round selections — and the first with six players selected in a single night.
