The Indiana Fever secured the best overall odds in the WNBA Draft Lottery, and luck was on their side as the pingpong balls bounced in their favor. This team, which has missed the postseason for seven straight years, is ready to turn things around.
Winning the lottery in back-to-back years makes the Fever the fifth franchise in league history to achieve this feat. The last time it happened, the Liberty opted to trade their top pick. Let’s see what the Fever will do with their pick this time around.
As we wait for the 2024 draft, many prospects are still eligible, including those who have an extra COVID-19 year. This post-lottery mock draft includes all eligible players, with Iowa’s Caitlin Clark projected as the No. 1 overall pick should she choose to declare.
Clark is one of the top prospects in this draft class, but the consensus strength lies in the group of forwards and centers who are eligible. Additionally, the 2024 class will feature at least four international prospects, adding a unique twist to the excitement.
