The 'WNBA rookie scoring leaders' quiz

Created on August 21, 2025 | Total tries: 13 | Average Score: 18.8 out of 56 (34%) | Quiz FAQ

Paige Bueckers was selected with the first-overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, and it has taken her very little time to get acclimated to the professional game.

She already earned a spot in the WNBA All-Star game as a rookie, and her 19.7 points-per-game would be behind just Cynthia Cooper, Seimone Augustus and A'ja Wilson for most all-time by a rookie.

Now, she's set a WNBA rookie record with 44 points on 17-of-21 shooting. Unfortunately for Bueckers and the Wings, it was Kelsey Plum and the Los Angeles Sparks who came away with a last-second victory to officially eliminate Dallas from playoff contention.

Which brings us to today's quiz. A WNBA rookie has scored 30 or more points in a game on 56 occasions. How many of the players to do it can you name in seven minutes?

Good luck!
