What happened: At least four clubs have inquired about Han Xu after her debut WNBL campaign. A move would place the 211cm center with a new club for her second season.

Why it matters: Xu’s rim protection would give her next club an immediate defensive anchor. She earned All-WNBL Second Team honors in her debut season.

By the numbers: Xu led the WNBL with 2.0 blocks per game in 2025-26. She recorded 25 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks in a semifinal clincher.

What to watch: Her destination and contract terms are the next developments to watch.
