Will Georgia Amoore be the next Kentucky player selected in first round of the WNBA draft?

Georgia Amoore is leaving a lasting legacy on the Kentucky women's basketball program in just one season.

With the WNBA draft approaching fast, the Australian native is a highly touted draft prospect. In the latest USA Today WNBA mock draft, Amoore is predicted to be the eighth pick by the Connecticut Sun.

In her lone year in Lexington, the All-American averaged 19.6 points and 6.9 assists per game. She broke the Wildcats single-season assist record. She also set the school record for most games with at least seven 3-pointers in a season.

She scored 43 points against Oklahoma on Feb. 2 to tie the program record for most points in a game.

She tied the Wildcats' NCAA tournament single-game record in the first round against Liberty when she scored 34 points.

Before joining the Wildcats for the 2024-2025 season, Amoore spent four years at Virginia Tech, where she holds 10 school records.

Amoore, Caitlin Clark, and Sabrina Ionescu are the only Division I players to score more than 2,300 points and dish out more than 800 assists in their careers.

The WNBA draft is April 14 and Amoore has the opportunity to be the first Wildcat selected in the draft in three years. See how her stats compare to the last five Kentucky draft picks:
