The Lady Vols have played a leading role in shaping the WNBA for decades.
Why it matters: The University of Tennessee women's team is one of the most commanding forces in college basketball history. And several players have found success as professional ballers.
More could join their ranks Monday during the WNBA draft.
By the numbers: Tennessee has generated 21 first round picks and 44 picks overall.
That amounts to the second highest number picks in the WNBA draft since the league started in 1997. It is second only to UConn.
The big picture: Longtime Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt, a sports legend in her own right, nurtured some of the biggest talents in women's basketball, including Candace Parker and Chamique Holdsclaw.
How to watch: The WNBA draft airs live at 6:30pm CT on ESPN. It will stream on the ESPN App.
