2025 Fantasy Outlook
When healthy, Sabally had a fairly consistent role for the Liberty in 2024, averaging 13.5 minutes per game across 26 appearances. She showed flashes of potential, including a 14-point, 10-rebound double-double against the Sparks on Aug. 28, one of only two times she played 20-plus minutes in a game. New York lost Kayla Thornton and Courtney Vandersloot this offseason and didn't make any notable acquisitions outside of Cheyenne Parker-Tyus while other stars around the league swapped teams, leaving Sabally to operate as the primary backup to Jonquel Jones again. Sabally can contribute in fantasy if she sees 20-plus minutes, but she's not expected to have that role when everyone is healthy in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Questionable for Thursday
FNew York Liberty
Knee
May 28, 2025
Sabally (knee) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Valkyries, Myles Ehrlich of Winsidr.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sabally is in danger of missing a third straight game as she continues to deal with a right knee issue. If she is ultimately ruled out for Thursday's matchup with Golden State, the Liberty could turn to Leonie Fiebich and Kennedy Burke to help shoulder the load.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Sabally was selected fifth overall by the Liberty in 2022, but she missed her entire rookie campaign due to an injury. She made her WNBA debut last year for a revamped New York squad and had limited production while operating exclusively off the bench. The 24-year-old averaged 2.3 points and 2.1 rebounds in 7.9 minutes per game over 33 appearances and was an inconsistent part of the rotation, especially late in the year. While Sabally could have some streaming appeal if the Liberty deal with injuries at some point, she shouldn't be considered a viable season-long target.
Sabally missed the entirety of her would-be rookie campaign in 2022 due to right knee surgery, but the 2022 No. 5 overall pick is expected to be healthy and will look to compete for a roster spot in 2023. The 6-foot-5 forward posted 15.4 points and 7.8 rebounds during her final collegiate campaign at Oregon, but it's unclear how her game will translate at the pro level, especially coming off an ACL tear. She also faces a new-look frontcourt that'll feature All-WNBA talents Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones, so Sabally's path to regular playing time is significantly hampered. She'll compete for a reserve role with Kayla Thornton, Jocelyn Willoughby, Stefanie Dolson and Han Xu, but barring multiple injuries, it's hard to imagine her cracking the top-50 fantasy producers.
