The WNBA Draft class of 2024 took in some of the best sights New York has to offer ahead of Monday night’s festivities, including some epic photos from the top of the Empire State Building.
Monday evening’s WNBA Draft will likely shatter all kinds of viewing records and become the start of some truly historic careers. This year’s draft class took time to remember such a huge milestone with a trip to the Empire State Building.
After Caitlin Clark and Kamilla Cardoso lit up the building orange, several players also in attendance went to the observatory deck to take in the view.
But what’s better than the view from the 86th floor? A selfie with Angel Reese, Caitlin Clark, Cameron Brink, Aaliyah Edwards, Dyaisha Fair and Marquesha Davis to commemorate the moment. BOOM.

Following her record-shattering collegiate career with the Iowa Hawkeyes, Clark is now set to embark on her WNBA career. The leading scorer in college basketball history is expected to go off the board to the Indiana Fever with the No. 1 overall pick in tonight’s selection process.
Reese, a superstar in her own right at LSU, is expected to come off the board within the top 10.
