Dominique Malonga

19-Year-Old CenterC
 Seattle Storm  WNBA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Although Malonga is just 19 years old, she signed a contract with the Lyon club in France at age 15 and made the French national team for last year's Olympics. The 6-foot-6 center has made 22 appearances for Lyon in the BWL this year, averaging 15.4 points and 10.3 rebounds in 29.6 minutes per game while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor. Malonga was selected with the No. 2 overall pick in this year's draft by the Storm, and she's expressed her intent to play mainly in the WNBA this year rather than being a draft-and-stash pick. She won't be subject to the league's prioritization rules over the first few years of her career, and it seems likely that she'll compete for France in Eurobasket in the second half of June, which would slightly cut down on her WNBA availability. Malonga is dominant under the basket and is even a threat from the perimeter, giving her a fairly high ceiling as a rookie, even if she spends some time overseas. Read Past Outlooks
Heading to Seattle at No. 2 overall

ANALYSIS
At just 19 years old, Malonga has already had plenty of success overseas, and she was part of the French national team that nearly took down the United States in the gold medal game during last year's Olympics. She played for French club Lyon in the BWL this season, averaging 15.4 points and 10.3 rebounds in 29.6 minutes per game over 22 appearances. Malonga is dominant around the rim and is also a decent perimeter threat, shooting 28.9 percent from three-point range this year. She'll join a Seattle frontcourt that includes Nneka Ogwumike, Ezi Magbegor and Gabby Williams, but Malonga has the size and athleticism to be a contributor in the WNBA early in her career, especially if she can continue to develop her strength and shooting efficiency. Malonga may head overseas at some point this summer to compete for France in EuroBasket, but she intends to play mainly in the WNBA this year and won't be subject to the league's prioritization rules, so she should see plenty of action for the Storm.
