Amoore was dressed on the WNBA’s orange carpet by NBA star Russell Westbrook, who has a clothing brand called Honor The Gift.
Amoore said Westbrook designed her outfit and was amazing to work with since they first got together on a Zoom session last November.
Amoore grew up in Ballarat playing a number of sports, including Australian Rules football, cricket, netball and taekwondo before switching her focus solely to basketball at the age of 17.
The 24-year-old started 155 of 157 games over five college seasons in the US, averaging 19.6 points and 6.9 assists for Kentucky this season after transferring from Virginia Tech.
As expected, the much-hyped Paige Bueckers went to the Dallas Wings as the top pick.
The versatile UConn star is the latest Huskies standout to go No.1, joining former greats Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi, Maya Moore and Breanna Stewart.

“Dallas I’m so excited, a new city, a new start,” Bueckers said. “A fresh start, so let’s get it.”
Bueckers has had a whirlwind week since helping UConn win a 12th national championship on April 6. She has split her time between New York and Connecticut doing morning and nighttime talk shows.
On Sunday, she took part in the Huskies’ championship parade.
Seattle quickly followed Dallas’ selection by taking 19-year-old French centre Dominique Malonga with the No.2 pick.

Malonga was part of the silver medal-winning French Olympic basketball team.
She’s the first French player to be drafted this high since 1997, when Isabelle Fijalkowski went second.

“I was so proud to achieve that goal,” Malonga said.
“It showed that French basketball has evolved as we’ve seen the past few years on the NBA side. We see Wemby (Victor Wembanyama) and Zaccharie (Risacher) show that French basketball is great.”
The expansion Golden State Valkyries took Juste Jocyte of Lithuania with the first draft choice in franchise history.
