The 2025 WNBA trade deadline is scheduled for August 7. With less than a week remaining for it, fans are taking guesses at the players who could be released from the team. Talks have been going on around for the Dallas Wings as well. Rumors have been doing round that the Wings are “rebuilding” their team, and with them having picked overall No. 1 pick, it is pretty obvious that they want to make their team around Paige Bueckers.

There have been no confirmations as of now. However, it is clear that the Wings’ primary aim is rebuilding. It means that they would focus on sending players rather than signing more. Several names have emerged who will be on the move. There have been multiple WNBA Trade Deadline Predictions, which suggest that Arike Ogunbowale could be on the go. It can be said that the Wings guard has become a name highly monitored across the league.

Ogunbowale has had a struggling season, and she was recently moved to the bench after Bueckers returned after missing a few games. She is averaging 10.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 25.3 minutes per game. Apart from her, players including Tearia McCowan and Myisha Hines-Allen will also be monitored. Hines-Allen offers her veteran prowess and can guard multiple positions.

While there could be multiple possibilities and scenarios, let’s get into the depth of one of the WNBA trade deadline rumors.

DiJonai Carrington to Golden State Valkyries

There have been rumors that the Dallas Wings could trade DiJonai Carrington to the Golden State Warriors for a second-round draft pick. Notably, the Valkyries had Kayla Thornton enjoying a breakthrough season. However, a knee injury not only ended her season but also turned out to be a setback for the Valkyries. Now, they are required to look for a suitable player while focusing on their defense.

Who comes as a better alternative than Carrington, who has been impressive on the defensive end of the floor. She has had her struggles with injuries, and hence, the Valkyries could easily trade a second-round pick to sign her. This will also align with the Wings’ objective of rebuilding their team around Paige Bueckers.
