Every generation leaves its fingerprints on the WNBA, but this one is already leaving handprints all over the walls. The past two drafts haven’t just added talent, they’ve shifted the league’s center of gravity. Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Cameron Brink burst onto the scene in 2024, and just a year later, Paige Bueckers, Sonia Citron, and Kiki Iriafen arrived to keep the surge going. Together, they’ve made the 2025 season feel like a crucial new page in the league’s history. The proof is in the milestones: six All-Stars under the age of 25, the most the league has seen since 2011. ESPN’s latest ranking of the top 10 players under 25 reflects exactly that. A snapshot of the young athletes who are not just holding the torch but running ahead with it.
