Megan Elizabeth Gustafson (born December 13, 1996) is a professional basketball player for the Las Vegas Aces of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). Born in the United States, she represents Spain at the international level and made her Olympic debut in 2024 playing for Spain at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Gustafson is from Port Wing, Wisconsin and played for South Shore High School. She is the all-time leading scorer in Wisconsin High School Girls Basketball.
Gustafson completed her college career with the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2019. As a senior, she scored 1000 points that year and won the Honda Sports Award as the nation's top female basketball player. On 15 March 2019, ESPN named Gustafson the national player of the year. In 2018 and 2019, she was named the Big Ten Conference Women's Basketball Player of the Year. On January 26, 2020, Iowa retired the number 10 in her honor.
She was drafted in the second round (17th overall) by the Dallas Wings in the 2019 WNBA draft, but was released before the start of the season. On June 10, 2019, Gustafson was signed again by the team.
The Washington Mystics signed Gustafson during the 2021 season, where she would see a significant increase in minutes played per game. Her play earned her a two year deal with the Phoenix Mercury for the 2022 season, where she would become an integral part of the playoff-bound team, including regular double digit minutes and her first double-double performance against the Las Vegas Aces. In her first career playoff appearance, Gustafson came off the bench and played a significant 21 minutes, scoring 12 points and collecting 4 rebounds in a Game 1 loss to the Aces.
On February 2, 2024, Gustafson was announced to be joining the Las Vegas Aces for the 2024 WNBA season. After an injury kept her out for the first half of the WNBA season, Gustafson played a role off the bench in the Aces second half surge that ended with the 2025 WNBA Finals championship. In Game 3 of the finals, with the game tied at 88-88 and 20 seconds left, she came up with a key defensive stop with a partial block and rebound that allowed AâÂÂJa Wilson to hit a game-winner with less than a second left. The Aces would go on to sweep the series.
Gustafson signed for the London Lions in August 2023 ahead of the Euro season. Helping them secure victory in the Betty Codona WBBL final against the Essex Rebels, she was awarded finals MVP.
