2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Sky underwent a complete overhaul last offseason, moving on from Candace Parker (Aces), Courtney Vandersloot (Liberty) and Allie Quigley (free agent), so Copper was thrust into a leading role in 2023 and thrived, averaging a career-high 18.7 points to go with 4.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 0.9 steals in 31.2 minutes per game. Chicago rewarded Copper with a multi-year extension last September, and she appeared to be on track to be the cornerstone of the rebuilding franchise. However, the 2021 WNBA Finals MVP was surprisingly traded from the Sky to the Mercury in February, leaving Chicago's roster in flux while joining what has become a viable playoff contender in Phoenix. While the 29-year-old won't be the clear-cut No. 1 option as part of a team that now includes players like Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi, Natasha Cloud and Rebecca Allen, Copper has proven her ability to make a real-life difference for her team and should remain a solid fantasy option in 2024. While her scoring production could take a hit with her new organization, she should have little trouble finding a prominent role in Phoenix. Read Past Outlooks
Career year with Phoenix in 2024
GPhoenix Mercury
September 29, 2024
Copper averaged 21.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.8 steals over 32.4 minutes and 37 contests in the 2024 WNBA season.
ANALYSIS
Copper saw her first year in Phoenix be the best of her career, getting a fresh start with the Mercury after being traded by the Chicago Sky last offseason. Copper was the best offensive talent on the Mercury squad in 2024, setting a new career-high scoring mark in her fourth straight All-Star season. Copper will enter her final year of her contract with the Mercury in 2025 and will return as a key piece to the team once again next summer.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Copper is coming off a career-best season in which she averaged 15.7 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 28.7 minutes and posted relatively efficient 48/36/78 shooting splits. She projects as the No.1 scoring option for Chicago again this season, giving her a reasonably high floor in fantasy. She doesn't provide anything as a defender, but she's showing progress in other areas of her game and took an impressive 4.2 free throws per contest last year.
Fresh off of a WNBA Finals MVP award, Copper inked a multi-year contract this offseason with a Sky club that retains most of its roster from last year's championship run. Copper finished the 2021 regular season averaging 14.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists over 30.8 minutes per contest. Her shooting numbers were on par with the previous campaign both in volume (11.8 attempts compared to 12.1 in 2020) and efficiency (54.3 true shooting percentage; 56.1 percent in 2020) and she should maintain a similar role this season as Chicago aims for back-to-back titles.
