2026 Fantasy Outlook

Following two seasons with the Liberty, Vandersloot returned to Chicago in 2025. The 37-year-old improved upon her 2024 results early in the 2025 campaign, averaging 10.6 points, 5.3 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 27.3 minutes per game over her first seven appearances before suffering a season-ending torn ACL. Vandersloot is one of the league's all-time leading passers, ranking second on the all-time assists leaderboard, behind only Sue Bird. However, her output has declined slightly in recent years, as she's averaged just 5.0 assists per game over the past two seasons. Vandersloot re-signed with the Sky ahead of the 2026 season, and while she should have an opportunity to maintain a starting role in Chicago, she doesn't have quite as much fantasy upside as she did earlier in her career, as the team traded away Ariel Atkins but brought in Skylar Diggins this spring.

Knee

April 28, 2026

Vandersloot (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Dream, per WNBA reporter Kareem Copeland.

ANALYSIS
Vandersloot underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL in her right knee last June and will not suit up in Chicago's preseason finale. The veteran guard is without a clear timetable for a return, though her next opportunity to play will come in the Sky's regular-season opener against Portland on May 9.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2025

2023

2022

Vandersloot has established herself as one of the league's premier passers throughout her career, but she saw decreased opportunities during her age-35 season, her second year with the Liberty. She still started in all 31 of her regular-season appearances, but she averaged 6.4 points, 4.8 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 22.3 minutes per game, marking one of the worst performances of her 14-year career. Vandersloot will have a chance to bounce back in Chicago, where she played for 12 seasons. She'll likely see an uptick in playing time and should have plenty of opportunities to rack up assists while playing alongside young stars like Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso. Vandersloot is a bounce-back candidate in her return to the Sky, but fantasy managers should still temper their expectations in case she deals with some conditioning concerns in her age-36 season.

Despite sharing the court with Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones, Vandersloot averaged at least 10 points, eight assists, three rebounds and a steal for the fifth time over her past six seasons. She has one year remaining on her current deal and will return to a star-laden team, though Jones may be on the move this offseason. Vandersloot is entering her age-35 season, but with Marine Johannes unlikely to play in the WNBA in 2024, the veteran should remain in a 30-plus minute role again. After three straight top-10 fantasy finishes, Vandersloot finished 22nd and 21st over the last two seasons, respectively, so she should be a safe pick at the end of the second or early third round in drafts.

After spending her entire career in Chicago, Vandersloot is moving to New York for her age-34 season. She's joining one of the WNBA's two superteams, with the other being Las Vegas. With her age and surrounding talent in mind, it's fair to expect Vandersloot to take a step back while playing alongside Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones. Still, Vandersloot's upside as a passer and defender make her an enticing fantasy option. Last season, in 26.5 minutes per game, she averaged 11.8 points on 48/37/77 shooting, 6.5 dimes, 3.9 rebounds and 1.7 combined steals-plus-blocks.

"Vandersloot" and "leading the league in assists" have become synonymous in recent seasons, with the veteran guard having topped the charts in that category every year since 2017. While Vandersloot couldn't match the 10.0 assists per game she averaged in the COVID-shortened 2020 campaign, she paced the league by more than 2.0 assists per contest last season. Vandersloot isn't a one-trick pony, as she added 10.5 points and 3.4 rebounds while ranking third in the WNBA in steals per game (1.7). Back with the Sky on a one-year deal to defend the title, Vandersloot should be among the more productive fantasy guards once again in 2022.
