It won’t be until May of next year when the new 2023 WNBA season tips off to bring us more thrills and chills on the court. Whilst we eagerly wait for the next campaign, the holiday season is the perfect time to look back at the most attractive belle ballers of the year as a gift of sorts for our die-hard WNBA fans.Nitrobetting has all the latest news and betting odds in the sporting world, as well as a handful of entertaining reads beyond the sporting action. This time, let’s count down the top 10 hottest WNBA players as of the year 2022 (in alphabetical order by their first names).
There are amazing Aussies throughout this year’s list, with the first being power forward Alanna Smith. The eighth-overall pick by the Phoenix Mercury during the 2019 WNBA Draft now plays for the Indiana Fever. Regardless of where she’s at, Alanna definitely brought sizzling heat with her looks befitting of teams’ names in the Mercury and Fever.
Breanna Stewart
One of the best WNBA players of the current era also happens to be quite a looker, as Breanna Stewart finally graced the covers of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition in 2022. The two-time champion, two-time WNBA Finals MVP, and one-time league MVP made the All-WNBA First Team this season and we expect her to be back in the hunt for another league MVP title next season.
DiDi Richards
A former standout for the Baylor Bears, Deauzya “DiDi” Richards has yet to make a huge splash in the WNBA ever since the New York Liberty drafted her in the second round of last year’s draft. Nevertheless, DiDi has caught the attention of new admirers thanks to her smoldering stare and relatively wild style.
Katie Lou Samuelson
Cali native Katie Lou Samuelson hasn’t lived up to her high expectations as the fourth-overall pick at the 2019 WNBA Draft. She recently moved to her fourth team in as many seasons but did break out with her best outing yet after returning to her home state as a member of the Los Angeles Sparks this season. By the way, Katie also has an equally attractive sister named Karlie, whom she shared the court with during their brief stint with the Dallas Wings back in 2020.
Leilani Mitchell
American-Australian wonder Leilani Mitchell hasn’t stepped foot on a WNBA court in over two years and yet her charming presence can still be felt as one of the more inspiring WNBA players to ever play in the league. Leilani is the only WNBA player to win the Most Improved Player of the Year award on two occasions and nearly a decade apart from one another (2010 and 2019).
Lexie Brown
Another WNBA player who was taken highly with a top-10 pick but never materialized in the pros is Lexie Brown, who’s now more of a hot ticket with her Instagram posts than her actual game on the hard court. Still, Lexie won a championship title with the Chicago Sky in 2021, making her a winner just like us whenever we catch her with another captivating snapshot on IG.
Liz Cambage
Perhaps no other WNBA player made herself a household name through social media than four-time All-Star Liz Cambage. The Australian Amazonian towered over her peers when it came to her snapshots on IG, flaunting nearly every bit of her marvelous 6-foot-9 physique (nice!) to the delight of her fans.
Natalie Achonwa
Natalie Achonwa is quite a rare sight to behold in women’s basketball, as her youthful facade makes her the apple of many fans’ eyes. Natalie has had a middling career in the WNBA, but she’s still actively playing overseas to this date, which garnered her many more international fans in awe of her skill and beauty.
Skylar Diggins-Smith
Few WNBA players have had a claim to success both on and off the courts as Skyler Diggins-Smith. A six-time All-Star and four-time All-WNBA First-Team selection, Skylar also happens to be one of the most popular female basketball players to partake in SI’s annual Swimsuit Edition with her jaw-dropping photoshoot for Sports Illustrated in 2014.
Te’a Cooper
We may have saved the best for last, as Te’a Cooper is arguably the WNBA’s hottest player to date, especially if you asked the fans from Tinseltown. The young Los Angeles Sparks point guard further gained attention after she joined Stewart and Richards as this year’s class of SI’s Swimsuit Edition models; her personal and similarly alluring uploads on social media notwithstanding. Te’a is certainly a tease for those who want the best of both worlds with her drop-dead looks and her bodacious curves.
