There is no other way to put it: This year’s Women’s Paradise Jam is a historic event, one of the single greatest collections of women’s basketball talent, under one roof, in the history of the sport.

As the confetti poured down at the Amalie Arena in April, the Baylor women’s basketball program shed tears of joy, having defeated Notre Dame, 82-81, to win the 2019 NCAA National Championship. 

The South Carolina Gamecocks enter the 2019 Women's Paradise Jam with a 6-0 record looking to prove their commanding start to the season was no fluke.

The Oregon Ducks are the nation’s number one team, with the country’s number one player in Sabrina Ionescu — and, as Ionescu penned for the Players’ Tribune after Oregon’s loss in their first-ever Final Four appearance last March, the Ducks have "unfinished business."

Louisville will head to the U.S. Virgin Islands to play in the 2019 Paradise Jam after opening up their season with five straight wins at home.
