Who are the top WNBA sports agents and agencies?

Short answer

No credible source ranks WNBA agencies by client count, and Forbes's 2025 agency ranking is not broken out for the WNBA. Public records do name leaders: Lindsay Kagawa Colas at Wasserman, Jade-Li English at Klutch, Allison Galer at Disrupt the Game and an Excel team representing Caitlin Clark, per the sources below.

This is Part 3 of a six-part series on the business of basketball. Part 1 covered the agency market and Part 2 profiled NBA agents. This part covers women's basketball, where the agent field is smaller and increasingly visible. It describes public careers and records only, and it does not recommend any firm or ask any reader to contact one.

Who are the best WNBA sports agents?

The best WNBA sports agents cannot be ranked from public data, because no credible source counts WNBA clients by agency. Forbes's 2025 agency ranking covers all sports and has no WNBA-specific breakout, per The Big Lead. A 2024 tally of 12 WNBA All-Stars found 10 different agencies, including Excel, SIG, WME, Klutch, Wasserman and Disrupt the Game, per a booking-agent site. That tally is partial, but it shows the field is spread widely.

What are the top sports agencies for women's basketball?

The top sports agencies for women basketball players include Wasserman, Klutch, Excel and Disrupt the Game, based on the public client records below. These are the top sports agencies for female athletes who play professionally in the league, but each also serves athletes in other sports. WNBA player representation agencies range from large multi-sport groups to boutiques led by one founder.

Who is Lindsay Kagawa Colas at Wasserman?

The Lindsay Kagawa Colas Wasserman biography lists her as Executive Vice President, Talent and The Collective, per her Sloan Sports Conference bio. The bio lists clients including Diana Taurasi, Breanna Stewart, Sue Bird, Brittney Griner, Maya Moore, Paige Bueckers, Cameron Brink and Sedona Prince, and the page is undated. The Wasserman WNBA players on that list are some of the league's most decorated.

The Breanna Stewart agent Lindsay Kagawa Colas of Wasserman was named by Sportsnaut in February 2023, per Sportsnaut. No 2026 source naming her agent turned up for this series. Stewart re-signed with the New York Liberty in April 2026 on a three-year maximum contract, per TSN.

Who is Jade-Li English at Klutch?

Jade-Li English is head of women's basketball at Klutch Sports Group, per her Sloan Sports Conference bio. She joined Klutch in early 2022 after earlier work at Octagon and Roc Nation, and she was named to the Sports Business Journal Game Changers class of 2024. Her clients include A'ja Wilson, Chelsea Gray, Jordin Canada, Allisha Gray and JuJu Watkins, per the same page. Searches for the Jade-Li English agent profile lead here, and her work shows how a firm known for men's basketball also builds a women's practice.

The A'ja Wilson sports agent answer therefore points to Klutch, since Sportico's Rich Paul biography also lists Wilson among Klutch clients, per Sportico. Wilson returned to the Las Vegas Aces on a deal reported as three years and $5 million and described as a supermax, in April 2026, per theGrio.

Who is Allison Galer?

Allison Galer founded the agency Disrupt the Game after UCLA law school at age 22, and Front Office Sports in October 2020 named clients including Lisa Leslie, Chiney Ogwumike, Elizabeth Williams and Liz Cambage, per Front Office Sports. Readers who search for Allison Galer Disruptive Sports are looking for Disrupt the Game. It is an example of a boutique built by one agent, and the 2024 All-Star tally included Kelsey Mitchell as a client.

What is Caitlin Clark's sports agency?

Caitlin Clark's sports agency is Excel Sports Management, per Sports Illustrated in October 2026. A 2023 Sportico report named Alan Zucker, a partner and head of talent marketing, with Colleen Garrity and Erin Kane on her team; their current roles were not confirmed for this series. The Indiana Fever exercised Clark's fourth-year option on April 28, 2026, so she is under contract through 2027, per WOWT.

Female executives like Colas, English, Galer and Kane make up a visible group of prominent female sports agents and agency leaders, the nearest public answer to who the top WNBA super agents are, and the list is growing as the league grows. Readers who want the contract side of Clark's situation will find it in Part 5.

What is known about other stars' representation?

Public sources are thinner for several stars, and this series reports only what sources name.

For the business side of building a women's basketball practice, Becoming a Basketball Agent: The Launch Plan lays out the road from certification to a first client.

The pattern is clear: representation spans many firms, and players move between them. The guide to how new WNBA agents find clients shows how that market opens to newcomers, and the WNBA agent guide explains certification.

Why does women's basketball representation matter now?

Because the league's pay and endorsement market are both larger than before. The 2026 salary cap is $7 million and the maximum salary is $1.19 million, per the WNBA collective bargaining agreement, and top players hold signature shoe deals covered in Part 5. Agents who understand both markets are in demand. The WNBA salaries guide sets out the pay scale.
