The WNBA season hits the unofficial halfway point this week, as the league enters its All Star Break.
This often acts as a bit of a reset for players that may be dealing with a nagging injury or other wear and tear, but now get several days to recover.
This week, I look for there to be more streaming opportunities, with players potentially getting an extra day off or a bit more time out to maximize the break. This makes it a good week to really spend some time on your fantasy women’s hoops free agency wire to make sure you field your best possible roster every day going into the break.
And, speaking of working the waiver wires, some names to look at this week…
Moriah Jefferson, G, Phoenix Mercury (46.7% rostered in ESPN leagues): Jefferson has started nine of the last 10 games for the Mercury, and has scored double-figures in eight of them. During that span, she has averaged 11.5 PPG, 3.4 APG, 2.0 RPG, 1.7 SPG and 1.2 3PG with category highs of 18 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds, 5 steals and 2 3-pointers.
