List of WNBA players from German-speaking nations

Marlies Askamp, ​​German record WNBA player with six seasons and 182 games

The list of WNBA players from German-speaking nations includes all basketball players who were born in a German-speaking country or who are or have been citizens of a German-speaking country and who are or were active in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). German-speaking nations are Germany , Austria , Switzerland , Luxembourg and Liechtenstein . So far, however, there have only been players who were born in Germany or who have German citizenship.

The first of the three lists contains players who have acquired citizenship through the principle of descent and / or place of birth. The second list contains players who were born in a German-speaking country but hold another citizenship. The third list shows the players who were drawn in the WNBA draft process, regardless of whether they were actually used.

The statistical information is based exclusively on games of the regular season and the annual figures are based on the actual years of use, whereby "today" does not necessarily have to assume a current season use.
