Free agent guard Courtney Vandersloot is set to return to the Chicago Sky, the team that originally drafted her in 2011. Vandersloot's agent confirmed the news, stating that the veteran guard will sign with Chicago after spending the past two seasons with the New York Liberty. WNBA free agents are not permitted to sign contracts until February 1.
Vandersloot holds the title of Chicago's all-time assist leader and ranks second in WNBA history behind Sue Bird. Her contributions were instrumental in helping the Sky secure their first WNBA championship in 2021. Now, she is poised to bring her veteran leadership to a young Chicago team led by frontcourt players Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso. The Sky also have a new coach, Tyler Marsh, this season and hold the No. 3 pick in the upcoming WNBA draft.
