TCU's WNBA Draft Moment Is Here as Two Frogs Eye First-Round History​

The Horned Frogs could make a major statement Monday night, with Olivia Miles in contention for the No. 1 pick and another TCU standout not far behind.

The Dallas Wings are on the clock and are just over 24 hours away from deciding who they will take with the top pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft. While this year’s class may not feature a clear-cut headliner like Diana Taurasi, Candace Parker, Breanna Stewart, A’ja Wilson, or Caitlin Clark, there is still plenty of intrigue surrounding the top selection.

One of the names that is firmly in the conversation to be called first overall is TCU guard Olivia Miles. However, she is not the only Horned Frog expected to hear her name called out on Monday night, as forward Marta Suarez is also projected to be selected. The duo played a huge role in leading TCU to a 32–6 record this season and a second consecutive Elite Eight appearance, which secured their place and legacy within the program.

I’m guessing Wings take Fudd #1 and miles goes 2. But I gotta say having a Bueckers/Miles backcourt is a true dynamic duo that most defenses wouldn’t be able to stop.

"Bueckers and Fudd have a long history together, and last year Bueckers announced that Fudd was her girlfriend."

Seems kind of an inherent flaw in the WNBA if you're making draft choices partly swayed by who your star point guard's girlfriend is. Gonna be a [ Finebaum ]show if they break up.

Lauren Betts and Marta are phenomenal physical specimens.

They had to keep the Scissor Sisters together. Can you imagine the upheaval and accusations is they didn't draft her? The Wings didn't have the balls to draft Olivia.

Not so fast! Immediately flipped to Golden State before the next pick. Wow.

Bigby immediately dealt to Connecticut. Didn't see that pick coming, but shooters are in demand, and Bigby can bury it when she gets separation. She'll have a challenge to beat out Kneepkens, though, for a roster spot.

If the Scissor Sisters break up that will be something.
