2026 Fantasy Outlook
Rice spent four seasons at UCLA and showed improvement in most areas as a senior to help lead the Bruins to a national title. She was the sixth overall pick in this year's draft and will join one of the league's newest franchises in Toronto. Despite her improvements at the collegiate level in the 2025-26 campaign, Rice joins a Tempo roster that acquired several capable guards ahead of its inaugural season, including Marina Mabrey, Brittney Sykes and Julie Allemand, who was selected with the second overall pick in the expansion draft. As a result, Rice could see limited opportunities during the 2026 WNBA season and instead focus on developing alongside the team's veterans. While Rice has ample talent, she may not see enough minutes to be a reliable fantasy contributor as a rookie. Read Past Outlooks
Likely out through All-Star break
Head coach Sandy Brondello said Thursday that Rice (ankle) has progressed to doing non-contact work at practice but is doubtful to return before the All-Star break, Zulfi Sheikh of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Rice has been sidelined since early June due to a Grade 3 left ankle sprain and has been considered week-to-week over the past month. While she'll be forced to miss some more time, it's at least encouraging that she's been able to take part in some activities at practice. The Tempo will presumably continue to build her up in the near future, and she could be in the mix to return to game action at some point in late July or early August.
