Courtney Williams

Williams returned to the Sun last season after a two-year stint with the Dream, but now she'll be moving again - this time to the Sky. In 28.0 minutes per game last season, the guard averaged 11.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals. She struggled with efficiency, with 43/34/75 shooting splits. This may be an opportunity for her to step into an expanded role, as the Sky lost Candace Parker, Courtney Vandersloot and Allie Quigley during the offseason. Two years ago, Williams averaged 16.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.1 steals in 34.4 minutes, which is what optimistic fantasy managers can hope for in 2023.

Williams signed a one-year deal with the Sun this offseason after a career year with the Dream in 2021. She averaged 16.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.1 steals in 34.4 minutes per game across 34 starts in Atlanta, but the Dream opted not to retain the guard due to her in-season altercation with former teammate Crystal Bradford. The situation came to light following the conclusion of last season, so the WNBA handed Williams a two-game suspension this offseason, meaning she won't make her season debut until the Sun's third contest (May 17 versus the Liberty). When available, she should hold down a starting role, though the Sun will return plenty of talent from a contending squad last year and will likely have a healthy Alyssa Thomas after Thomas missed the majority of 2021 due to an Achilles injury.
