Three South Carolina women’s basketball standouts heard their names called in the 2025 WNBA Draft, continuing the program’s strong legacy of sending players to the pros.

Te-Hina Paopao was selected by the Atlanta Dream in the second round. A two-time All-American, she averaged 10.2 points per game at USC and shot 42.2% from three, second-best in program history.

Bree Hall went to the Indiana Fever, where she’ll reunite with her former teammate Aliyah Boston and superstar Caitlin Clark. Known for her defense and clutch shooting, Hall played more games than any other four-year Gamecock and helped lead the team to multiple championships.

Sania Feagin rounded out the trio, heading to the LA Sparks. She posted career highs in her senior season, including 8.1 points and 4.5 rebounds per game, and earned SEC All-Defensive honors.

This marks the fourth time in nine drafts the Gamecocks have had multiple players selected.
