Lynx Draft Three Players

The Minnesota Lynx had a busy W-N-B-A Draft day. Minnesota traded for Washington Mystics forward Karlie Samuelson yesterday. Minnesota sent a 2026 first-round pick to Washington to complete the deal. Head coach Cheryl Reeves admits Samuelson should be a good fit for the Lynx.

The Lynx also drafted Anastasiia Olairi Kosu, Dalayah Daniels, and Aubrey Griffin last night. Kosu is a 19-year old player from Russia, while Daniels comes from the University of Washington and Griffin played college ball at U-Conn. The number one selection was former Hopkins and U-Conn player Paige Bueckers.
