The 2024 WNBA Draft will take place on April 15, and Ole Miss Rebels Guard Marquesha Davis will attend the event in Brooklyn, New York.

This season, women's basketball has surged in popularity thanks to several players, including Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Both will attend the 2024 WNBA Draft, as will Ole Miss Rebels guard Marquesha Davis, who earned an invite to the big night.

Davis earned her invite, in part, thanks to her 2023/24 season. The Arizona native led the team in points and steals this season, scoring double figures in 25 games. Her performance earned her All-SEC First Team honours for the past season.

Marquesha Davis' journey to the 2024 WNBA Draft is a testament to her dedication and hard work. She has consistently improved her game over her five years in college, reaching a new level in her last two seasons with the Rebels. Her journey began at Arkansas, where she spent her first three seasons before transferring to Ole Miss.

Where Could Ole Miss Guard Marquesha Davis Be Drafted in the 2024 WNBA Draft?

Davis has been mocked as an early-round-three player. Michael Voepel of ESPN released his latest mock draft on April 10, with Davis going in round 3 with the 28th pick to the Los Angeles Sparks.

Basketball analyst Rebecca Lobo has singled out Davis as a "sleeper" pick in the first round of this year's WNBA draft. Lobo said, "She's an elite-level athlete...who has huge upside due to her athletic ability."

Davis looks to become the seventh Rebel drafted in school history on April 15 in Brooklyn, New York.
