This is a completely different team from the squad that went 26-10 last season and the team the won the WNBA championship back in 2021. Five of their six players who averaged at least 10 PPG last season have not returned.
To help account for those losses. the Sky acquired Marina Mabrey, Courtney Williams, and Isabelle Harrison in the offseason. Both Williams and Mabrey averaged 10-plus PPG in 2022.
We know there will be a lot of new faces on this team, however Kahleah Copper is not one of them. Last season she was on the Sky roster that had four other career All-Stars and Copper still led the team in scoring (15.7 PPG). She also set career-highs in RPG, APG and 3-pointers made in 2022.
Copper has only two other All-Stars on her team this season, however, with Elizabeth Williams and Courtney Williams, which means she will have the ball in her hands more and be the main go-to player on the roster. It’s reasonable to expect big fantasy numbers from her this season.
