NaLyssa Smith, DiJonai Carrington were protected in WNBA Expansion Draft

As NaLyssa Smith and DiJonai Carrington continue to develop as WNBA stars, their value to their respective teams continues to grow. Smith and Carrington proved valuable ahead of the WNBA expansion draft.

With the WNBA's 13th team, the Golden State Valkyries, set to tip off their inaugural season in 2025, the league opened an expansion draft for its newest team on Friday night. Golden State selected teammates of Carrington and Smith, picking Veronica Burton, formerly of the Connecticut Sun, and Temi Fagbenle, formerly of the Indiana Fever.

Phoenix included Carrington as one of their six protected players and Indiana included Smith in their list of protected players, keeping them on their respective teams and preventing them from being selected in the expansion draft.
