Vandersloot returned to the Sky this offseason after playing the past two seasons with the New York Liberty. She won her second WNBA championship last year. The No. 3 overall pick in the 2011 WNBA Draft, Vandersloot had played her entire career with the Sky before she signed with the Liberty as a free agent in 2023.

The five-time All-Star played her first 11 seasons with the Sky, and was selected to the All-Star team as rookie. This season, Vandersloot has appeared in all of the Sky’s first four games to begin the season as the team’s starting point guard. She’s averaging 11.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.5 steals with splits of 41.9 percent shooting from the field, 17.6 percent shooting from the three-point line and 83.3 percent shooting from the free-throw line.

Vandersloot’s return gives the Sky a much-needed veteran presence for their young players.
