On April 14th, TCU keeps sending talent to the pros. Taylor Bigby joined Olivia Miles and Marcha Suarez as Horned Frogs picked in the 2026 WNBA draft. Portland Fire grabbed her seventh in the third round, then shipped her to the Connecticut Sun, along with their 2027 third round, pick for Sarah Williams. Bigby kicked off at Oregon in 2021, then bounced to USC for two years, putting up around four or five points a game.
But TCU coach Mark Campbell saw her potential and brought her to Fort Worth, where she blew up. She was solid last season in TCU's first Elite Eight run, hitting 43% from the field for nearly six points. This year, injuries opened the door, and she stepped up huge, draining 38-9% of her threes while averaging a career-best 8.2 points per game. Fans and scouts loved her toughness.
Now TCU's got a school-record three draft picks, proving the program's building something real. Expansion teams want her versatility. Contenders need her role-player grit right away. This pipeline vibe means TCU's just getting started, turning heads across the league as they keep climbing.
