2022 WNBA draft to be held in person for first time since 2019

NEW YORK — Roll out the orange carpet: The 2022 WNBA draft will look a little more normal this year.

Members of this year’s class will get to hear names called live and in person on April 11 from Spring Studios in TriBeCa, the league announced Thursday afternoon. It will be the first time the draft will be held in person since 2019 (before the coronavirus pandemic moved the show virtual). That year, the Liberty drafted Asia Durr at No. 2 overall.

Previous in-person drafts held in the City were at Nike HQ (2018-19) and at Samsung 837 (2016).
