Dallas Wings rookie Azzi Fudd confirmed she will join Project B this offseason, adding her to a roster that already includes fellow 2026 draftee Awa Fam. The new 5‑on‑5 league runs from November to April, traveling to venues across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Fudd’s participation marks the first time a No. 1 overall pick has signed for the venture.

Project B will field six teams of eleven players each, competing in seven two‑week tournaments. Cities announced so far include Valencia, Spain, and Tokyo, where games run March 25‑April 4. Host Broadcast Services, the FIFA World Cup production partner, will stream every match, giving the league unprecedented global exposure. Salaries promised exceed current WNBA rates, with Fudd earning $500,000 for the season.

Fudd entered the Wings averaging 12.7 points on 50.7% shooting, a solid foundation for a rookie expected to boost Dallas’ playoff push. Her NIL deal with Unrivaled ended after college, making the Project B contract her first major professional endorsement beyond the league salary. Project B thus becomes a new revenue stream for top talent while expanding the sport’s international footprint.
