WNBA draft 2022 grades: Indiana Fever, Atlanta Dream, Washington Mystics score highest marks

The 2022 WNBA draft will be judged a lot on how much the Indiana Fever did to improve themselves after dominating the first round with four picks. The Fever had seven selections overall, and the players who get a roster spot will have the opportunity to be change-makers for a franchise that hasn't been in the playoffs since 2016.

With so many picks Monday, it's no surprise the Fever lead ESPN's WNBA draft grades. Indiana threw one curveball to most prognosticators in taking Stanford Cardinal guard Lexie Hull in the first round.
