2026 Fantasy Outlook
After missing the entire 2025 WNBA campaign while recovering from left knee surgery, Laney-Hamilton has been limited during training camp this season while working on her conditioning. When healthy, she's been a key piece for the Liberty, and that should be the case again in 2026, especially while Sabrina Ionescu is sidelined to start the year. With that said, Laney-Hamilton isn't a high-upside pick in fantasy. Her injury history and the competition for usage in New York will make it difficult for Laney-Hamilton to replicate the type of production she put up earlier in her career. However, she'll always be a candidate for increased output whenever one of the Liberty's stars - Ionescu, Breanna Stewart, Satou Sabally and Jonquel Jones - is unavailable. Laney-Hamilton should be drafted at the end of fantasy drafts, but most of her value will come as a streaming option. Read Past Outlooks
Ruled out for Sunday
Laney-Hamilton (personal) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Wings, per Annie Costabile of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Despite returning to practice Saturday, Laney-Hamilton will sit out a second consecutive game while continuing to attend to a personal matter. Her next opportunity to suit up will come Monday against the Fire.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
2022
Laney-Hamilton enjoyed the best two years of her career in 2020 and 2021, and while she hasn't been quite as productive over the three seasons since then, she's been remarkably consistent over that stretch. Across those three years, she's averaged 11.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 29.5 minutes per game, production that gives her a somewhat high fantasy floor. While the Liberty will retain most of their core players from the championship-winning group, Laney-Hamilton dealt with a lingering knee issue last year and underwent knee surgery in March that will likely force her to miss the entire 2025 season.
