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.
That’s what makes Seattle Storm center Dominique Malonga even more special. Not only is she is expected to join the list of players who have dunked in a WNBA game at some point, Malonga is the youngest player in the league at 19 years old to begin her rookie season.
Below is a list of the youngest WNBA players, with their ages as of July 1, 2025.
