Dearica Hamby

Hamby announced her pregnancy during the Aces' championship parade last September, so it's unclear if she'll be ready for a full workload to start the 2023 campaign. She had five straight solid campaigns with Las Vegas before being traded to the Sparks this offseason in exchange for Amanda Zahui B. Los Angeles has lost Katie Lou Samuelson (pregnancy) and Stephine Talbot (knee) for the season but added Hamby and Azura Stevens to a frontcourt that already featured Nneka Ogwumike and Chiney Ogwumike. When available, Hamby should claim a sizable role with her new squad, and given her scoring efficiency, rebounding prowess and defensive playmaking, she'll be a quality fantasy asset in 2023. Hamby's participation late in preseason bodes well for her chances of making an early return to regular action, potentially even the season opener.
