The 'No. 1 overall WNBA Draft picks' quiz

Paige Bueckers is having a pretty good month. 

First, she helped end Connecticut's nine-year national championship drought, eclipsing the 30-point benchmark three times and scoring 40 in the Sweet 16 against Oklahoma. Then, on Monday night, heard her name called first in the the WNBA Draft. 

The night was the ultimate reward for Bueckers, who suffered a devastating knee injury in her sophomore season after being named AP Player of the Year in her debut campaign in Storrs. But she's started every game for Connecticut over the past two seasons, averaging 19.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists in 30.3 minutes-per-game in her final season. 

Which brings us to today's quiz. Since its inception in 1997, how many of the players to be chosen first overall in the WNBA draft can you name in seven minutes?

Good luck!
