Jordan Obi drafted 44th overall by Las Vegas Aces

NEW YORK, N.Y. (ABC 36 NEWS NOW) – The Las Vegas Aces have selected Kentucky guard Jordan Obi with the 44th overall pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft.

Obi was at Kentucky for two years but played just one due to a torn ACL ahead of the 2024–25 season.

As a senior, Obi averaged 9.0 points and 6.0 rebounds per game for the Wildcats.

She becomes the fourth Wildcat drafted, marking a record number of Wildcats selected in a single WNBA Draft.
