The WNBA's collective bargaining agreement restricts eligibility to women, with U.S. players required to meet strict age (turning 22 in the draft year), college graduation, and renunciation timelines that former NBA players do not satisfy. Recent August 2026 declarations by ex-NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White, along with Larry Sanders, to enter the 2027 draft were promptly deemed ineligible by league sources, who described the moves as publicity efforts rather than legitimate claims, consistent with the absence of any transgender women in WNBA history and no expected policy shifts. This framework underpins trader consensus favoring no former NBA player being selected, though a formal rule change ahead of the April 2027 draft or successful legal challenge could still alter outcomes.
