All these players are good, but Maya Moore was just special, there is a reason she was player of the year 3 out of her 4 years in college, and once she got to the Wnba, she showed why she was not to be messed with, we all know she retired to do her criminal justice stuff, but she was special.
Oh, come on now she was the on a part of a uconn team that was going to win multiple championships whether she was there or not at that time in women’s college basketball. There was only one dominant team and the rest were weak. is good, but we can’t look at what she did as if she had to work hard she wouldn’t of won anything at Iowa
I put some respect on her name. I also put some respect on your name for bringing it up. Then I put some respect on my name because I had leftover respect after sprinkling it on you. .
@@douglastong3208 I don’t know if you remember this, but a lot of people didn’t want CC to go to the WNBA because they don’t make a lot of money. She’s already bigger than the WBA in terms of popularity. Can’t really compare Maya to that.
@@davidguity6818 nobody cares about WNBA titles. This is the first year people started caring about the league as a whole. She could’ve won 10 chips , that doesn’t make her a the g.o.a.t. because nobody watched her. If that’s the case, Bill Russell is the greatest of basketball player all-time in any league.
i think that as the top level progresses it'll become harder and harder for rookies to pull off numbers like that, but that still happens in the nba so sometimes they just got it
Also need to remember that these players are spending 4 years in college before getting drafted. They are coming into the league with much more experience than NBA number 1 picks.
It's because they stay in college for years and are not one and done like we see in the nba. It used to be like that in the nba too. MJ averaged mvp numbers during his rookie season.
Loved this video man! Crazy to see how a ton of the top picks are still producing at high levels all these years later. Seems like even with the game being super physical the way the schedules are set players are able to thrive for longer
I’m glad someone’s made a video about what has happened to WNBA number one overall picks. I get you all don’t watch the WNBA and don’t really care about the sport (I am in this boat as well quite frankly) but it’s still quite interesting to learn which WNBA number one overall picks have succeeded and failed.
Angel Mccaughtry was the most Jordanesque player I've ever seen in my life. Male or female, she looks like a spitting image of Jordan with her playstyle. One of my favorite WNBA players of all time.
As someone who has been following women's college hoops since I was at grad school at Stanford (Go Cardinal!) in the 80's and the W since 1998 (I had season tickets to the Monarchs from 1999 until the team folded) this is an exceptionally fair and well reasoned appraisal. Good job!
I would never have had any interest in a video like this prior to this season , the WNBA owes Caitlin Clark so much for the unprecedented amount of attention their league is getting now , and I liked the video, much respect to the athletes who worked so hard
It’s mainly because the men are usually one and done, while the women stay for years and develop under a system and we actually get to see them over time. So I think it’s makes scouting easier
@@Ladnar_von_Boshaft Following Title IX, there are now just as many women as men playing NCAA basketball. The NBA draft has 30 teams each given 2 draft picks = 60 players drafted. The WNBA has 12 teams each getting 2 picks = 24 players. So it is harder for women college players to get drafted, and the talent gap between the top 6 women and the next 18 chosen is large... the 10th pick of the WNBA draft is not of great value when compared to the 10th pick in the NBA draft. Even so, not all of the first 12 women picked make the roster of the team that chose them, and on average only about half of the next 12 do. Also...In general, NBA men's bodies are still maturing/gaining muscle mass at age 20, whereas WNBA women's bodies usually don't change much from age 20 to 28.
Maya Moore , Diana Taurasi, Candice Parker had rookie season which were historic and looking at their collage stats to compare with CC's collage stats(expect title) how come that some ppl told CC will be not good in WNBA and she will not dominate ?
Because people misquoted what was said. They didn't say she wouldn't be good in the league. They said she would not come in and immediately dominate. Which, she didn't. That's the biggest problem, they're not even quoting what was said correctly.
I loved this segment! It reminded me of how much I enjoyed watching players like Angel, Simone and Maya. What Tina Charles has done with her career is just incredible!!
Well there is only 12 teams and the league kept contracting that even their most successful team the Houston Comets folded because no one cares about the WNBA.
I consider Candace as WNBA's GOAT but Maya's 8 years really was amazing. Now, A'ja is looking like he will obliterate major player and defensive player awards.
A'ja Wilson is a good blocker, but she does get the ball 4 times more often than any of her Aces teammates making her team leader in scoring. Wilson is a ball hog! She shoots at least 25 balls per game includes 3 point attempts which she getting between 25 to 30 points per game. If Caitlin Clark rarely passes the ball aka Assists and take the shot herself, CC would get 30 to 40 points per game. After all, CC holds the NCAA Women's Basketball record of more than 3,000 points. Not the NCCA Men's because she is not a man, only the women's records. Again, in the WNBA ..yeah remarkable to get 1,000 points for the season. More games played now than 10 years ago, so took longer to break 1,000 and 10 years ago if they played 40 games then someone else would have had 1,000 points already and not A'ja. If it were CC, easily would get 1,100 points if she was a ball hog.
Was secondhand into the W as a kid in the 00s since it was on Sportscenter. I am so glad it was on so I could see Candice Parker throw down like she did. Her game was insane to watch and made me, a white dude who joked about the league, love women's hoops.
What’s also really cool about Sabrina is that she was in the NBA all-star game for the 3 point contest and gave Steph a run for his money, which definitely helped people view the WNBA in a better light
The OP betrays his lack of WNBA knowledge by confusing her with her sister Nneka. Chiney's WNBA career was shortened by knee and achilles injuries. She's a beautiful human being.
2017 San Antonio Stars (Later the Aces) had worst 2 year record and won lottery with 44% chance. 2018 LV Aces had worst 2 year record and won the lottery with 44% chance. 2019 LV Aces had 2nd worst 2 year record, but won the lottery with 28% chance.
@@markp2865so they go by mainly 2 year Record in the WNBA and not just the one year, that’s pretty dope before the NBA new Tanking rules. I wonder if the WNBA will model the NBA in that regard seeing how the next 4 years These girls in college are going to be 1-2 years and dones instead of 3-4 college players, but most stayed 4 16:59 years Because the WNBA was they popular for the shorter college girls who wasn’t ball is life. Mainly because of money and time. BUT that’s changing now.
Maya is my goat. Until CC actually wins something in the WNBA my WNBA Mt Rushmore is Diania T, Maya Moore, Candace Parker, and you prob gotta put Aja Wilson up there already.
I'd add Tamika Catchings, one of the best all-around players in WNBA history. Unfortunately, she spent her entire 15-year career with Indiana, so she only won 1 championship, in 2012.
Taurasi is the best player there ever was and ever will be. No one else will ever match her. 3 NCAA championships, 3 WNBA championships, 5 Olympic Gold Medals, first and only player to ever score 10,000+ points in the WNBA. No one will ever match that. She’s a once in a lifetime player.
It's crazy how the WNBA 1st overall picks prerrty much never missed. All of these women were clearly the best in their class and proved it immediately.
I watch this video in complete awe of just how skilled these players are and the players they’re competing against. And then I see Angel Reese clips…. 💀
Big respect to Maya Moore. She sacrificed her career to help those in need and get the justice they deserved. Not many people would do that, which is why I have a ton of respect for her
Bro hold up how tf did the Aces got 3 straight no.1 pick?! Plum 2017 did not help the team during her rookie yr Wilson 2018 got a great rookie yr but remain a lottery team?! They got another no.1 in Jackie 2019. Wth.
@@ceecee6036 I was just surprised that Wilson did not manage to elevate her team at least the last playoff spot on her rookie year coz she's playing real crazy rn.

Honestly wasn’t expecting to see a single player that was good enough to he called average at basketball than the average joe but seems like there been a few decent players. Now it’s all players where high schooler can beat.
The best woman basketball player ever is Cheryl Miller My top 5 wnba players ever Diana Taurisi Candace Parker Cheryl Swoopes Rebecca Lobo Lisa leslie Honorable mention : sue bird maya moore brittany griner and Tina Charles Caitlin Clark will be in the top 3 ever when its over
It occurs to me that the difference in ability in women's college basketball between Division 1, Division 2, and the NAIA might be slight. I wonder if the WNBA takes notice of the latter two.
No, there is a large gulf between the NCAA D1 (especially the top 5 conferences - Big Ten, SEC, ACC, Big 12, and Big East) vs D2, D3, and NAIA. The vast majority of US-born WNBA players played college basketball in one (or more) of those 5 conferences.
6’4” with a 7’1” wingspan is ridiculous

The skill level in the WNBA rising is making it such a watchable product. Shits good the last few seasons.
I sit just me or are first-picks in the WNBA usually good calls? I feel like the NBA drafts a lot more first-pick busts.
It’s mainly because the men are usually one and done, while the women stay for years and develop under a system and we actually get to see them over time. So I think it’s makes scouting easier
The biggest disappointments among the WNBA #1 picks were: Charli Collier (2021), and LaToya Thomas (2003).

Caitlin Clark will be in the top 3 ever when its over
This dude speaks INCREDIBLY liberally about every accolade. Everything sounds revolutionary
3 number one picks in a row is crazy
cc broke the rookie points record
Shout out to Mya Moore and Caitlin Clark.
Moore was and is still one of the greatest players in league history
It seems like the WNBA has a higher success rate for number one picks than the NBA does.
I forgot there was a WNBA
MAYA MOORE. To me, the Michael Jordan of the WNBA. And if you knew her you would find out that she was very classy on why she left the game early.
No Taurasi is the Jordan or the WNBA..
The LeBron James @@iakadayrneh
Candace is EXCELLENT as an analyst.
Candace was a monster!
Very interesting how the wnba #1 picks seems like a 80% chance to hit vs the nba top picks rarely works out I wonder why that is
The men go to the NBA as 18 year olds competing against men. The women play 4 years in college. The men get paid so much they can coast.
why does young diana taurasi somehow looks like someone, another legend perhaps
MAYA MOORE IS STILL THE GOAT FOR ME.
CC for MVP!
The Olympic team was filled w #1 picks i just realized
It occurs to me that the difference in ability in women's college basketball between Division 1, Division 2, and the NAIA might be slight. I wonder if the WNBA takes notice of the latter two.
No, there is a large gulf between the NCAA D1 (especially the top 5 conferences - Big Ten, SEC, ACC, Big 12, and Big East) vs D2, D3, and NAIA. The vast majority of US-born WNBA players played college basketball in one (or more) of those 5 conferences.
The most interesting thing is how few busts there are. Maybe playing many years in college does have benefits
