Chicago Sky Adds Chennedy Carter in Salary Dump Deal
Carter Signs 1-Year Contract Worth $64154
Sparks Unload Surplus Salary, Focus on Future Potential
In a move that primarily served as a salary dump, the Los Angeles Sparks have traded guard Chennedy Carter to the Chicago Sky. Carter signed a one-year contract with the Sky worth $64154, including an average annual salary of $64154.
The Sparks, who are rebuilding after a disappointing season, were looking to shed Carter's salary to create cap space for future moves. The 25-year-old guard averaged 8.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game last season.
The Sky, on the other hand, are hoping that Carter can provide a spark off the bench. The former first-round pick has shown flashes of brilliance throughout her career, and the Sky are hoping that she can find her footing in Chicago.
Carter's addition gives the Sky a solid depth option at guard. She joins a backcourt that already includes All-Star point guard Courtney Vandersloot and shooting guard Allie Quigley.
The Sparks, meanwhile, will continue to focus on developing their young talent. They have a number of promising players on their roster, including 2021 first-round pick Aaliyah Boston.
