Basketball fans, take notice — Georgia Amoore is officially WNBA-bound. The former Virginia Tech standout was selected 6th overall by the Washington Mystics in the 2025 WNBA Draft, capping off a college career that was nothing short of legendary.
Although she played her final season at Kentucky, Hokie Nation will forever remember her as the fearless floor general who led Virginia Tech to its first-ever Final Four appearance. Amoore’s time in Blacksburg redefined what was possible for the program — with clutch shots, dazzling playmaking, and relentless leadership that put the Hokies on the national map.
Her transfer to Kentucky only raised her draft stock as she showcased versatility, elite court vision, and an improved scoring touch against the toughest competition. WNBA analysts praised her “pro-ready IQ” and described her as “one of the most polished guards in the class.”
Social media erupted after her name was called — Hokies and Wildcats fans alike flooding timelines with tributes, highlights, and celebration posts.
The Mystics now add a dynamic playmaker who knows how to win and thrives under pressure. Could Georgia Amoore be the spark D.C. has been looking for?
