As the clouds of darkness continue to wrap the WNBA, the preparations for the next year are underway. With the WNBA draft lottery concluding recently, the hoops realm is looking extremely riled up. Luckily for the fans of Paige Bueckers, the Dallas Wings won the 2026 draft lottery.
This means that the Wings will be picking first for the second consecutive year. Now, despite acquiring Bueckers last year, the Wings failed to make a mark. Thus, such a situation surely comes as a fantastic opportunity for the Wings to rectify their mistakes. However, looking at the outcome of the lottery, fans online have come up with some wild theories.

Dallas Wings’ Latest WNBA Draft Lottery Gets Luka Doncic Comparisons
Last year, it was the Bueckers’ show all the way. With the 23-year-old breaking almost every record, Bueckers clinched the Rookie of the Year award. Unfortunately, due to a lack of a suitable partner, the Wings faltered badly and came last in the league.
And while Bueckers is looking to draw UConn roots to forge the winning culture, the latest No.1 pick comes as a boon. Now, as the Wings rejoice, the hoop-loving fans have been coming up with some wild theories.
Last year, Luka Doncic’s trade to the Los Angeles Lakers took the entire NBA world aback. With Dallas Mavericks fans fuming, many speculated that the NBA must have given the Dallas organization some added incentives.
