Wallett was among four free agents signed as the Giants finalised their squad for the competition slated to get under way in February.
The 25-year-old adds the title of GWS Giants player to an already impressive CV which includes a stint on the ACT Meteors women's cricket squad and ACT AFL representative captain.
The Belconnen co-captain joins WNBL games record holder Jess Bibby, W-League star Ellie Brush, Ella Ross, Britt Tully and Clare Lawton on the Giants list.
Giants coach Tim Schmidt said he was pleased with the way the squad is shaping up.
"To have the squad made up of 13 players from Sydney shows how the game is developing in New South Wales," Schmidt said.
"Coupled with six players from the ACT, and some of the best talent from Western Australia and Victoria, we are confident we're well placed ahead of the season.
"It's exciting to have the squad locked away and now we turn our attention to what's going to be a really intense block of pre-season training."
The Giants squad will come together in November in preparation for the eight-team competition.
