What happened: Citron enters the 2027 offseason with a 2025 WNBA All-Rookie Team selection alongside her two All-Star appearances. She also captured a World Cup gold medal during her recent international run.

Why it matters: Citron became the second-youngest guard in league history to earn an All-Defensive nod. Securing both All-Star and All-Defensive recognition within her first two seasons places her among the premier two-way guards entering the 2027 campaign.

What to watch: Citron now enters offseason training ahead of her third professional campaign in the 2027 WNBA season.
