WNBA draft 2024: Who is the best all-time No. 1 pick?

[Skeets]

Stewie no longer plays for the team that drafted her.

Hmmm, good point. Maybe as far as Seattle is concerned Stewie is no longer part of the discussion as to who is the best #1 draft pick. Back to my original post, it depends on how you view the question: from the team's perspective, the players perspective, or something else. The question could have several answers and they all could be right.

The 2024 WNBA draft is Monday (7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN) and Iowa Hawkeyes guard Caitlin Clark is essentially considered a lock as the No. 1 pick by the Indiana Fever. If so, she will join a list of 27 other players who have had their name selected first in the WNBA draft, which began in 1997, the league's inaugural year.

The majority of No. 1 picks have paid off for the WNBA teams that selected them. Eight former No. 1 picks have combined to win 13 MVP awards; 16 have won at least one WNBA championship.

Stewie, DT, Sue Bird’s longevity puts her over Maya…

Maya only played 7 years in WNBA, then retires and married happily, has a boy now.
From wiki,
Maya April Moore (born June 11, 1989) is an American social justice advocate and former professional basketball player. Naming her their inaugural Performer of the Year in 2017, Sports Illustrated called Moore the "greatest winner in the history of women's basketball".[2] Moore was selected for the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2024.
