Former Women’s Basketball Standout Madison Scott Signs with Washington Mystics

WASHINGTON D.C. – Ole Miss women’s basketball continues its strong presence in the WNBA, as Rebel alumna Madison Scott has signed a season-long contract with the Washington Mystics, the team announced Thursday.

The third WNBA draft pick in the Yolett McPhee-McCuin era, Scott was chosen as the 14th overall pick during the 2025 draft. Since then, she has seen 25 minutes of action in league play, scoring a total of 10 points across the five games.

Scott had an outstanding five-year career at Ole Miss, consistently elevating her game and becoming one of the most exciting players in the SEC. During the 2024-25 season, she scored in double figures in a team-leading 21 games, averaging 11.8 points and 3.7 assists per game, leading the Rebels in both categories. Recently, she became just the fourth player in Ole Miss history to surpass 1,600 career points and 1,000 career rebounds.

Nationally recognized for her talent, Scott earned a spot on the 2025 All-SEC Second Team, marking her seventh career conference honor, and was recognized as a WBCA Honorable Mention All-American. Additionally, she was awarded the 2025 Gillom Trophy as the best women's basketball player in Mississippi.
