Dana Evans

26-Year-Old GuardG
 Chicago Sky  WNBA
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Sky lost several significant players ahead of the 2023 season, leading to some speculation that Evans could take on a starting role. She ultimately came off the bench in 38 of her 39 appearances last year but was one of the team's most prominent reserves, averaging 9.0 points, 3.0 assists and 1.2 rebounds in 21.5 minutes per game. The Sky will likely be in a rebuilding phase once again in 2024 after trading Kahleah Copper to Phoenix and losing Courtney Williams in free agency to Minnesota. Evans had career-best marks in most areas last season, but her fantasy potential in 2024 could be somewhat dependent on whether she's able to earn a starting role. She's capable of providing a spark if she can win a starting spot during training camp, but her upside will be somewhat limited if she continues to come off the bench. Read Past Outlooks
Finishes season in bench role
GChicago Sky
September 25, 2024
Evans averaged 7.2 points, 2.4 assists, 1.1 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 0.1 blocks over 19.1 minutes per game across 39 outings (12 starts) during the 2024 season.
ANALYSIS
Evans was in the Sky's starting five for the first 12 games of the regular season, during which she averaged 10.3 points, 3.8 assists, 1.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 27.3 minutes per game. Evans and Diamond DeShields lost their spots in the starting five in mid-June to Lindsay Allen and Chennedy Carter, and Evans came off the bench for the rest of the season even after the Sky traded Marina Mabrey to the Sun in mid-August. As a restricted free agent this offseason, Chicago will be able to match any offer another team makes to Evans.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Evans had a small role off the bench in 2022, averaging 4.3 points and 1.2 assists in 11.5 minutes across 33 appearances. However, she may be asked to step up for a Chicago team that lost high-usage playmakers Candace Parker and Courtney Vandersloot during the offseason. Depending on how the lineup shakes out, Evans could claim a starting role in the backcourt. At the very least, she should have a more regular role off the bench. For her career, she's taken over half her shots from three, converting at a rate of 35.7 percent. That's where she could benefit fantasy teams the most, though her career rate of 4.3 assists per 36 minutes is solid as well.
Evans began 2021 with the Wings before being traded in early June to Chicago, where she settled into a bench role. The rookie guard finished her partial season with the Sky tallying 3.9 points and 1.2 assists over 8.6 minutes per game. It doesn't appear promising that her role will be any more significant in 2022, given Chicago's addition of Jule Allemand via trade from the Fever, but Evans could see more time on the floor should other backcourt options miss time.
