Unlike the NBA, the WNBA doesn’t allow players to leave college early. That means the youngest players in the league are typically 22-year-olds who have exhausted their college eligibility.
Four active players are still 22 at this point in the offseason, making them the youngest in the league before this year’s WNBA Draft on April 14. Three of them play for the Washington Mystics.
Below is a list of the youngest WNBA players, with their ages as of Feb. 25, 2025.
Ranking Youngest WNBA Players in 2025
