The UConn >>> WNBA pipeline is strong

I think having the first three picks from the same school is something that will be hard to replicate.
Of course with the way the transfer portal is going, maybe it is a possibility...

I’d be interested to know how many times a school has had multiple (2+) first round draft picks in the same year. UConn has done it at least a few times that I can think of (2002, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019). Even rarer would be 3+ first round picks (2002, 2016, 2018). I’m sure I’m missing at least a year or two that falls into either of these categories.

ND in 2019, South Carolina this year. I can’t recall any other teams recently
