All three of the Sparks’ drafted rookies — No. 9 pick Sarah Ashlee Barker out of Alabama, No. 21 pick Sania Feagin out of South Carolina, No. 28 pick Liatu King out of Notre Dame — will be there.
They’ll be joined by L.A.’s undrafted free agent signing, wing Alyssa Ustby out of North Carolina.

Barker is expected to bolster the Sparks’ perimeter defense. When she served as a primary defender, Barker limited the opposition to 23 percent shooting from the floor, good for the fifth-best such metric in Division I NCAA basketball.
Feagin, meanwhile, was a two-time champion with the Gamecocks and posted a 144-7 record during her collegiate tenure. A 2025 All-SEC Tourney honoree, the 6-foot-3 forward averaged 8.1 points while slashing .601/.333/.797 shooting splits, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.3 dimes a night.
