Syracuse guard Dyaisha Fair announced on social media that she will be declaring for the 2024 WNBA draft. As a graduate student in 2023-24, Fair averaged 22.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game leading the Orange to the Round of 32 in the NCAA Tournament.

Across her five-year collegiate career, with the first three being played at the University at Buffalo, Fair scored 3,403 points, the third-most in women’s Division I history. Fair passed Ohio State’s Kelsey Mitchell (3,402 points) on the all-time scoring leaders list in SU’s second round loss to UConn.

Fair followed head coach Felisha Legette-Jack from Buffalo to Syracuse following the 2021-22 season and helped transform the Orange’s program. Following turbulence after Quentin Hillsman’s resignation and an 11-18 record in 2021-22 under temporary head coach Vonn Read, SU won 20 games in the 2022-23 season and reached the Super 16 of the WNIT.

Though she could’ve declared for the draft after averaging 19.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game as a senior, Fair returned to Syracuse for her graduate season. Fair’s return to SU resulted in a record-breaking season, helping it win its first NCAA Tournament game since 2021 while becoming the 16th women’s player in D-I history to break the 3,000-point milestone.

The 2024 WNBA Draft is on April 15 and Fair was projected to be the No. 10 pick in ESPN’s mock draft from April 3.
