Overview
- Las Vegas announced Wednesday it signed guard Chennedy Carter to a training-camp contract, a non-guaranteed tryout deal teams use to set rosters before the May season start.
- The Aces are seeking low-cost depth and second-unit scoring behind a loaded championship core with much of their cap tied to star players.
- Carter last played in the WNBA in 2024 with the Chicago Sky, averaging 17.5 points on 48.7% shooting along with 3.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.1 steals.
- Her résumé includes a suspension in Atlanta for conduct detrimental to the team and a 2024 shoulder check on Caitlin Clark that the league upgraded to a flagrant 1.
- After 2024 she played overseas, including in China and Mexico, and her return now hinges on how she performs in camp to earn a spot in the Aces’ backcourt.
