Overview
- Awa Fam, a 19-year-old Spanish center projected as a WNBA lottery pick, signed Wednesday to play in Project B while remaining eligible for the April 13 draft.
- Fam expects almost no offseason over the next year and says she will manage the workload through preparation, recovery, and support from her team.
- Project B counts roughly a dozen-plus announced players, led by Nneka Ogwumike, Alyssa Thomas, Jonquel Jones, Jewell Loyd, and Kelsey Mitchell, with additional names reported by Front Office Sports.
- The league plans six teams of 11 players competing in 10-day tour stops across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, with Front Office Sports reporting a December start after initial guidance of November as questions persist about overlap with the WNBA calendar.
- Confirmed 2027 tour stops include Valencia, Spain from March 12–22 and Tokyo from March 26–April 4, with the rest of the schedule still to be finalized.
