Odyssey Sims

Notable 2017 stats: 16.7 PER, 22.6 assist percentage, 3.1 steal percentage

Projected 2018 role: Starting guard

Odyssey Sims was a volume scorer in college. So it is striking how much she has grown her game in the WNBA. For Brian Agler in Los Angeles last season, she was a defensive stopper, elite finisher, solid playmaking option either in addition to or instead of Chelsea Gray in various Sparks’ configurations, and a vital part of that contending team. She’s a plus perimeter shot away from making some all-WNBA teams.
