The WNBA free agency frenzy lived up to the hype, with All-Stars changing coasts, contenders retooling, and the league's landscape shifting dramatically. While no future first-round picks were traded, the sheer volume of player movement forces a fresh look at Monday's draft, particularly at the very top. With rosters taking shape and team needs coming into sharper focus, here's an updated projection for how the first round could unfold.

We have a shakeup at the number one spot! The Dallas Wings have been aggressive in free agency, shoring up their frontcourt by signing defensive standout Alanna Smith and adding Jessica Shepard. With the return of Awak Kuier and Li Yueru in camp, center is no longer a pressing need. This pivot allows them to target a dynamic guard, and while Azzi Fudd is a tempting backcourt fit next to Paige Bueckers, the unparalleled playmaking upside of Miles is too good to pass up. Her elite vision and improved shooting could thrive in Dallas's system.

With Dallas likely passing on a center, the Minnesota Lynx would happily end Fam Thiam's slide. After losing significant frontcourt depth in free agency and the expansion draft, Thiam's versatility and athleticism would create an electrifying pairing with star Napheesa Collier. Minnesota has a proven track record of developing young post players and has immediate minutes available.

This scenario creates a tough break for Lauren Betts, who falls due to a positional logjam. The Seattle Storm just made Ezi Magbegor the highest-paid player in league history and have a promising young big in Dominique Malonga. This likely shifts their focus to the perimeter, where they can select a premier shooting talent in Azzi Fudd to address a longstanding need for floor spacing.

The Washington Mystics' decision on Shakira Austin will be a major domino effect, but for now, they look to add backcourt creation. With a roster built around defensive identity and savvy veterans, a dynamic scorer like Jackson, who can generate her own shot and pressure the rim, would be a perfect backcourt complement to their established core.
