Players to Watch: Chicago Sky vs. Connecticut Sun
Chicago Sky
Kamilla Cardoso — C. Cardoso has turned into Chicago’s most reliable frontcourt weapon, scoring 14.7 points a game on 54.7% shooting while also leading the Sky with 8.8 rebounds a night. She splits that rebounding work almost evenly between both ends of the floor, pulling down 5.9 defensive boards and 2.8 offensive boards per game, and she’s a dependable presence at the line too, converting 73.3% of her free throws.
Natasha Cloud — G. At the point, Cloud runs Chicago’s offense at a team-best 5.0 assists per game across 29.1 minutes a night. Her 2.3 turnovers per game keep her assist-to-turnover profile efficient for a starting guard carrying this much ballhandling responsibility.
Azura Stevens — F. Stevens gives the Sky size and scoring off the frontline, putting up 10.7 points and 6.8 rebounds a game this season. Her 5.3 defensive rebounds per game far outpace her 1.4 offensive boards, a split that points to her value protecting the glass on the back end.
Connecticut Sun
Olivia Nelson-Ododa — C. Nelson-Ododa has been Connecticut’s most efficient scoring option, averaging 10.0 points a game while shooting a team-best 56.9% from the floor. She backs that up on the glass with 5.9 rebounds a night, split 4.3 defensive and 1.7 offensive, giving the Sun a legitimate two-way presence in the paint.
Charlisse Leger-Walker — G. Leger-Walker directs traffic for Connecticut, posting 3.5 assists per game to go with 6.8 points a night across 36 appearances this season. Her 1.8 turnovers per game are a reasonable price for the offense she generates for a Sun backcourt otherwise short on scoring punch.
Aaliyah Edwards — F. Edwards rounds out Connecticut’s frontcourt with 9.9 points a game on a sharp 53.8% shooting clip, adding 4.0 rebounds a night to the mix. Those boards split 2.7 defensive and 1.3 offensive, a balance that fits her role as a two-way contributor up front.
