Shyanne Sellers Drafted to WNBA, Daughter of WZAK Legend Kym Sellers

The WNBA just added serious firepower with the selection of Shyanne Sellers in the 2025 draft. A standout guard from the University of Maryland, Sellers now begins her professional journey—and she’s bringing Northeast Ohio pride with her.
Sellers is the daughter of Cleveland radio icon Kym Sellers, best known for her years on-air at WZAK. Her father, Brad Sellers, is the current mayor of Warrensville Heights and a former NBA player. Talent clearly runs deep in the Sellers family, and Shyanne is ready to make her own name on the hardwood.
At Maryland, Sellers became one of the most versatile and dependable players in the Big Ten. She averaged 15.6 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists in her final season. Her ability to run the offense, knock down shots, and lock up on defense made her a key piece for the Terps. Coaches praised her basketball IQ, leadership, and work ethic.
She enters the WNBA as a strong two-way player with pro-ready size and skill. At 6’2”, she brings length and athleticism to the guard position. Her court vision and ability to defend multiple positions give her new team flexibility on both ends.
Cleveland celebrates another hometown success story, as Shyanne follows in the footsteps of her trailblazing mother and father. With her talent and pedigree, she’s poised to make an extraordinary impact in the league.
Expect to hear her name—and see her game—shine for years to come.
