Who is trending up in fantasy women’s basketball? Which rotations are changing? What’s the latest with the notable injuries around the WNBA?
Here’s a look around the league at the most fantasy-relevant news and notes for all 12 teams.
Atlanta Dream
There aren’t many fantasy options for a Dream team ranked 11th in offensive rating (95.8). Aari McDonald (available in 65.5% of leagues) is the most viable streamer. She has played well off the bench. McDonald has scored 22 or more fantasy points in four of her last five games.
Chicago Sky
It has been a great six-game run for Courtney Vandersloot, who is averaging 36.3 fantasy points during that span. The results of Candace Parker’s last two games have been glorious. In each one, she has scored more than 31 fantasy points. If you are in a bind and need a streamer, look no further than Rebekah Gardner (available in 93% of leagues). She has scored 15 or more fantasy points in three of her last four games.
Connecticut Sun
Averaging 18.4 fantasy points per game this season, Natisha Hiedeman (available in 87.4% of leagues) has been a consistent streamer for the Sun. Those in deeper formats can also consider Odyssey Sims (available in 98% of leagues). She signed a seven-day contract last Wednesday with the Sun, but she scored 20 fantasy points in 18 minutes against the Sky on Sunday. Since the Sky have injuries at guard, Sims will remain in the rotation.
Dallas Wings
The best streaming option from the Wings is Kayla Thornton (available in 38.6% of leagues). Over the last five games, she has averaged 29.2 fantasy points. In the absence of Arike Ogunbowale, Marina Mabrey has helped fill the void. She recorded her first career 30-point game against the Liberty on Tuesday night.
Indiana Fever
The Fever have lost 16 straight…
