The result of the lottery draft will be out on November 23. While fans made their feelings clear, the Wings will be readying their draft board, hoping to land the top prospect. The side already has three top targets to accompany PB at the back court.
Dallas Wings Can Have Strong Backcourt Duo With Three Top Prospects Available
Landing back-to-back top picks would be a great chance for the franchise to have a strong young core to build around. Having the UConn star controlling the game, the side might opt for another scorer and ball handler to provide them with flexibility in the backcourt.
Arike Ogunbowale had been quite inconsistent in the 2025 season. While it’s too early to replace her with the young talent, adding a player like Azzi Fudd, Flau’jae Johnson, or even Oliva Miles, the team would have a strong backcourt. For the front-court issue, the franchise could use another option – free agency.
Dallas Wings announced Jose Fernandez as the new head coach, a move that hints at the investment in the long future. It will be interesting to watch whether the side sees the future with the backcourt pairing or the frontcourt-backcourt duo.
