2024 WNBA Free Agent Tracker

By Annie Costabile and Jesse Howe

WNBA free agency begins on Jan. 21, marking the first day players and teams can begin contract negotiations. Certain teams have already extended core designations on some of the league’s top unrestricted free agents. The New York Liberty used the core tag on reigning MVP Breanna Stewart on Jan. 11 and the Washington Mystics cored Elena Delle Donne on Jan. 13. While these tags limit both players ability to negotiate with other teams, it doesn’t prevent a sign and trade from happening. Stewart has made it clear she will be back with the Liberty in 2024, but Delle Donne’s future is less certain according to reports that the two-time MVP is expected move on from the Mystics.
