April drafts bring May rookies, and the latest class of WNBA stars is ready to blossom. Everyone's favorite league is about to start up again.

The league kicks off its 2024 season on May 14, and it might be the most anticipated campaign yet. The WNBA grew exponentially in a matter of months, with gameday tickets rising in price and charter flights now official leaguewide. For old and new fans, there's plenty to be excited about.

Unfortunately for the third pick in the draft, Kamilla Cardoso's debut with the Sky will be delayed for a few weeks with a shoulder injury. The good news is her rookie teammate, Angel Reese, is thriving in Chicago, recording 13 points in each of her first two preseason games. And the rivals-turned-teammates are just a few to keep an eye on this season.

A'ja Wilson and the Aces are vying for their third straight WNBA title, and while the season's young, no one seems to be in their way. 

The latest and greatest season is beginning. Here's what's going on the first week of the 2024 WNBA season.
