The Chicago Sky is currently in rebuild mode, focusing on players like Angel Reese, Kamilia Cardoso, and Chennedy Carter. A “blockbuster” trade with the Connecticut Sun shows the Sky’s commitment to their future. Spotrac predicts the Sky to have significant cap space in 2025, allowing them to extend crucial players like Chennedy Carter and pursue other players in free agency. The Sky’s need for bench support is evident after trading away Marina Mabrey, and they have room to address this.
DeWanna Bonner
While signing DeWanna Bonner may be a stretch due to age, the Chicago Sky could benefit from her scoring ability as a guard/forward. With Bonner and Alyssa Thomas becoming free agents, the Sky could be an attractive destination, especially considering their new practice facility. The Sun’s cap space limitations could make Bonner’s move to the Sky more plausible, offering experience and scoring prowess to a young team.
Satou Sabally
Satou Sabally presents another potential option for the Chicago Sky, adding versatility as a three-position player. Building through the draft is the Sky’s focus, but adding a player like Sabally, known for her attacking, passing, and post skills, could elevate the team. Her signing could address the team’s struggles with playmaking and create opportunities for young players to develop.
