The upcoming WNBA free agency period (which begins in February 2025) is certain to create a buzz within the women’s basketball community.
Among the top free agents are Breanna Stewart, Kelsey Plum, Kelsey Mitchell, and Nneka Ogwumike, but Chennedy Carter’s performance during the 2024 season has significantly raised her value.
Carter, after averaging 17.5 points per game with the Chicago Sky, is now a restricted free agent.
When asked about Carter’s future with the team, new Sky coach Tyler Marsh praised her contributions but mentioned that their focus has been on current contracted players.
“I connect well with people.”
