Chennedy Carter Traded to Los Angeles Sparks

Former No. 4 Overall Pick Headed to LA

Sparks Acquire Rising Star in Exchange for First-Round Pick

Former Atlanta Dream guard Chennedy Carter is on the move to Los Angeles, as the Sparks have acquired the rising star in a trade with the Dream.

The Sparks parted ways with a first-round pick in exchange for Carter, who was the No. 4 overall selection in the 2020 WNBA draft. The 23-year-old averaged 12.2 points and 4.1 assists per game last season with the Dream.

Carter is a dynamic guard known for her quickness, athleticism, and scoring ability. She is expected to play a key role for the Sparks, who are looking to bounce back from a disappointing season.

The Sparks have been one of the most successful teams in the WNBA, winning three championships. However, they have struggled in recent years, failing to make the playoffs in the past two seasons.

The acquisition of Carter is a major move for the Sparks, who are hoping that the young star can help them return to contention.
