With the WNBA Draft rapidly approaching, fans and pundits are doing all that they can to try and work out where each of the best players are going to end up.
Paige Bueckers managed to win the NCAA championship with the Connecticut Huskies and it is almost certain that she will be the first player drafted, and it is likely that the Dallas Wings will be the beneficiaries of her talent.
Beyond Bueckers going to the Wings, though, there is some mystery over where some of the other exciting prospects could show up next season.
The rumored top 5 WNBA Draft picks
ESPN has done a mock draft, and they think that Dominique Malonga is going to be taken by the Seattle Storm as the second overall pick.
After that, the very exciting USC Trojans star Kiki Iriafen could be headed to the Washington Mystics as the third pick. As a senior at USC, she averaged 18.0 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists as the Trojans won the Big Ten regular-season title and made the Elite Eight
The Mystics actually have three of the top six picks and are in for a very busy draft. For that reason, there is a good chance that they will also take Sonia Citron from the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Citron averaged 14.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists as a senior, helping Notre Dame win a share of the ACC regular-season title and reach the Sweet 16.
Finally, the fifth pick is expected to see Aneesah Morrow move from the LSU Tigers to the Golden State Valkyries. Morrow led Division I in rebounding (13.5 RPG) and double-doubles (30) this season, also averaging 18.7 points.
