The 2024 WNBA Draft is in the books.

A total of 36 players heard their names called in Monday night's three-round draft at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York, and the event began in expected fashion.

The Indiana Fever kicked things off by selecting Iowa sensation Caitlin Clark with the No. 1 overall pick.

It marked the second straight year Indiana held the top overall selection after taking Aliyah Boston, who went on to the win WNBA Rookie of the Year, in 2023.

Clark now teams up with Boston on the Fever following a legendary college career where she took the Hawkeyes to consecutive NCAA championship games and set all kinds of records, most notably the all-time Division I scoring record among both men and women. And while Clark was certainly the crown jewel of this year's class, there were several other big names drafted shortly after her.

Stanford's Cameron Brink went from Northern California to Southern California as the Los Angeles Sparks took the three-time All-American forward second overall. The Sparks then added another highly touted prospect at No. 4 with the selection of standout Tennessee forward Rickea Jackson.

The Chicago Sky also had a pair of early picks and they used them to bolster the frontcourt. Chicago first took South Carolina's All-American center Kamilla Cardoso at No. 3 before adding LSU's three-time All-American forward Angel Reese at No. 7. Cardoso and Reese combined to win the last two NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player awards.

The Dallas Wings, meanwhile, took Ohio State's All-American guard Jacy Sheldon fifth and the Washington Mystics selected UConn's All-American forward Aaliyah Edwards sixth. Utah's two-time All-American forward Alissa Pili went eighth to the Minnesota Lynx.

The top 10 was rounded out by a pair of French prospects. Dallas used its second first-rounder on guard Carla Leite at No. 9 and the Connecticut Sun took guard Leila Lacan at No. 10.
