We are almost a month into the WNBA season, and most of the teams have played around 10 games. This roughly represents the quarter mark of the season and the players have established both themselves and their levels of expected production. Still, there are always opportunities that come along where players get more minutes or a new role and take advantage.
That’s where we come in. Let’s take a look at five players outproducing expectations of late who could be beneficial to your fantasy hoops squads in either the short or long term.
Stefanie Dolson, Washington Mystics (30.2% rostered in ESPN leagues): Dolson has been the starting center for the Mystics all season, earning the spot after Elena Delle Donne retired in the offseason. She has been a solid contributor, with her 3-point range adding to her whole skill set. Dolson has set single-game highs for points (19), rebounds (7), 3-pointers (5), assists (5) and blocked shots (2) within the past week and is averaging 9.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.0 3s, 1.0 blocks and 0.5 steals over 24.8 minutes during that four-game span.
