The Dallas Wings selected Texas Longhorns star Charli Collier with the first pick in the 2021 WNBA Draft on Thursday.
Collier finished her junior season averaging 19 points, 1.2 blocks, and 11.3 rebounds per game while shooting 51.1% from the field. She finished among the top 10 in double-doubles (tied for second), total rebounds (third), offensive rebounds (second), free throws made (sixth) and free throws attempted (seventh) in all of women's college basketball.
The 6-foot-5 center becomes the first Big 12 player drafted No. 1 overall since Brittney Griner in 2013 by the Mercury.
"My God is so good," Collier told ESPN's Holly Rowe.
