Skilled 6-foot-7 center Sedona Prince didn’t hear her name called at Monday’s WNBA draft.
Prince was projected to go as high as late first round, but a series of concerning allegations made her one of the toughest WNBA prospects to evaluate.
Multiple women have accused Prince of sexual assault or abuse in recent months.
She also faced backlash from fans, with more than 200,000 people signing a Change.org petition to have her removed from the TCU women’s basketball team.
Prince denied those allegations in a social media post in August and has not been charged with any crime.
“Sedona has not been charged with a crime or found guilty of any wrongdoing,” Prince’s lawyer, A. Boone Almanza, told ESPN in a statement before the draft.
“Rather she has been convicted on social media by people who have attempted to use their relationship with Sedona to attract followers and to build their influencer careers and settle grudges. To the extent she has made any mistakes different from other young people in their early dating life it was solely the decision to be on TikTok.”
After going undrafted, there’s still the possibility for Prince to be signed to a training-camp contract or continue a playing career overseas.
Prince, 24, had her college career derailed numerous times by injuries.
Last season with TCU — her third school (Texas, Oregon) in seven years — she averaged 17.2 points, 9.4 rebounds, three blocks and 2.4 assists and helped the Horned Frogs to the program’s first Elite Eight.
