Dearica Hamby, who has delivered a breakout season for the Sparks, has signed a contract extension that runs through the 2025 season.
Sparks forward Dearica Hamby signed a contract extension through the 2025 season, the team announced Thursday. Financial terms were not released. Hamby, who has been in the league for 10 years, was selected sixth overall in the 2015 draft by the Aces franchise, which was then in San Antonio and known as the Stars. Hamby joined the Sparks in 2023 after being traded by the Aces — who she was with for eight seasons — during her pregnancy in January 2023.
” Through 12 games this season, the two-time All Star has averaged 20 points, 3.8 assists, and 1.6 steals while also leading the WNBA in double-doubles and rebounds per game . The two-time Sixth Women of the Year is also shooting 48% from deep, tied for third in the league, and 54% from the field, good for sixth. Last week, Hamby was named the Western Conference Player of the Week after leading her team to a 2-1 record at home, including a 96-92 win over Las Vegas.
