For the first time in eight years, the WNBA Draft will be open to fans looking to get a glimpse of the league’s newest crop of superstars.

The league’s 28th annual draft is set to take place on April 15 with WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert announcing the draft picks at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, a famed performing arts theater that is just minutes away from Barclays Center.

About 1,000 tickets will be sold for this year’s draft, the league announced Wednesday. It’s the first time the draft will have fans in attendance since the 2014-16 drafts were held at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

“We are focused on creating elevated events that WNBA fans won’t want to miss, at a time when the energy for the WNBA has never been higher,” Engelbert said in a statement. “Last season resulted in our most-watched regular season in over two decades, our highest total attendance in 13 years and set record figures across WNBA digital and social platforms.”

Last year, Spring Studios in Manhattan hosted the 2023 WNBA Draft, where the Indiana Fever selected eventual unanimous Rookie of the Year winner Aliyah Boston with the No. 1 overall pick. The Fever are again slated to have the first selection in this year’s draft.

Iowa’s Caitlin Clark, Stanford’s Cameron Brink, Tennessee’s Rickea Jackson, LSU’s Angel Reese and South Carolina’s Kamilla Cardoso are the biggest names heading into April’s draft.

Clark has yet to declare for the draft, but is the consensus No. 1 overall pick, according to multiple mock drafts. The owner of the NCAA women’s scoring record said she won’t make her decision until after the end of the collegiate season.

Brink, Cardoso and Reese could also return to college for the 2024-25 season.

PLAINS TOWNSHIP, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU)— A man investigators say was cheating at the casino is now facing charges.

According to police, officers were called to Mohegan Pennsylvania at 4:30 a.m. Monday regarding a cheating incident.

Police said they spoke with employees and were told they saw 47-year-old Jianchu Liu acting suspiciously at a baccarat table. Upon reviewing the security footage, police noted Liu was adjusting what appeared to be a phone underneath the scorecards.

Body found in Wilkes-Barre home, investigation continues

After the dealer stopped shuffling and allowed Liu to cut the deck, surveillance video showed Liu moving the dealer’s hands around to “dictate how he [the dealer] should be holding the deck.”

Liu left the table after the shuffle and the dealer replaced the cards according to the affidavit.

Employees told police they searched their database and found that Liu was part of a team of Baccarat cheats and had been reported for cheating at two other casinos in Missouri.

Officers say they reviewed further surveillance of Liu in the casino and watched him do similar actions as he did at the previous table at another table within the casino.

Liu was charged with two counts of knowingly by trick/fraud/manipulation to win or reduce a loss. This charge is filed when players attempt to manipulate a card shoe by cutting the cards in a manner that would reveal the cards’ number or picture to help win.
