Der '''erste [[WNBA Draft]]''' fand am 28. April 1997 in den NBA Entertainment Studios in [[Secaucus]], [[New Jersey]], [[Vereinigte Staaten]] statt. Die Auswahlreihenfolge wurde bei einer [[Lotterie]] festgelegt.

Im Gegensatz zu den späteren Drafts in der [[Women’s National Basketball Association]] (WNBA) wurde dieser in drei Drafts unterteilt. Am 22. Jänner 1997 fand eine ''Initial Player Allocation'' statt, wo jeweils zwei Spielerinnen zu den einzelnen Teams per Zufall zugeteilt wurden. Danach fand am 27. Februar 1997 der ''Elite Draft'' statt, wo die acht Mannschaften aus einem ''Talent Pool'' in zwei Runden jeweils eine Spielerin auswählen konnten. Bei diesem Draft handelte es sich zu diesem Zeitpunkt ausschließlich um Spielerinnen, die in internationalen Profi-Ligen tätig waren. Als letztes fand schließlich am 28. April 1997 der WNBA Draft statt.
