WNBA Draft Tonight + Doc Rivers Steps Down + What Would You Give Up For Giannis In A Trade?

Reese, Pam and Alex discuss tonight's WNBA Draftt, Doc Rivers leaving the Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Doc Rivers is no longer the head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks after the team decided to move on following a disappointing season that ended without a playoff appearance. Rather than a sudden in-season firing, his departure is being described as a postseason exit, with Rivers stepping down or mutually parting ways with the organization after finishing the year. The Bucks struggled to meet expectations during his tenure, despite being built around superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, and the team ultimately underperformed over multiple seasons under Rivers’ leadership. Would you trade for Giannis or is he overrated now? The 2026 WNBA Draft is taking place tonight, April 13, at 7 p.m., featuring three rounds and 45 total picks, and it stands out as one of the most unpredictable drafts in recent years. The Dallas Wings hold the No. 1 overall pick for the second straight year, but unlike past drafts, there is no clear consensus top prospect. Several players are in contention for the first selection, including Azzi Fudd, Awa Fam, Olivia Miles and Lauren Betts, making team fit and strategy especially important. This year’s class is also notable for its strong international presence, with prospects like Fam highlighting the WNBA’s growing global reach. In addition, the draft is considered deep with college talent, including multiple potential first-rounders from programs like UCLA, and rising stars who boosted their stock during March Madness. It is also the first draft held under the WNBA’s new collective bargaining agreement, which brings improved salaries and benefits for incoming players, signaling continued growth for the league. Expansion teams like the Toronto Tempo and Portland Fire add another layer of intrigue as they begin building their rosters. One unusual storyline is that top prospect Olivia Miles has already signed with the 3-on-3 league Unrivaled, showing how players now have more professional options than ever. Overall, tonight’s draft is less about a guaranteed superstar and more about depth, uncertainty, and the continued evolution of the WNBA.
