The Washington Mystics drafted Zaay Green, a guard from Alabama women's basketball, as the 32nd pick in the 2025 WNBA draft. Green averaged 15.7 points, 5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game during the 2024-25 season with the Crimson Tide, surpassing 1,500 career points.
Green, who previously played for Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Texas A&M, and Tennessee, played a key role as a point guard for Alabama. She faces injury concerns, having lost two seasons to injuries and being 25 years old on draft day. Green needs to work on her 3-point and free-throw shooting to enhance her performance at the professional level, despite her solid contributions in scoring and rebounding.
