Drops 31 points in win Sykes supplied 31 points (10-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds and six assists across 35 minutes in Tuesday's 98-90 win over the Mercury.

Impact After dropping 38 points on 10-of-21 shooting from the floor in Sunday's win over the Sparks in Los Angeles, Sykes turned in another strong performance on the road Tuesday. The veteran guard led the Tempo with a game-best 31 points while tying the team-high mark in rebounds, and she also paced Toronto in assists. The 32-year-old has now scored at least 27 points in three straight games and has dished out at least six assists in three of her last four.

Impact Sykes continued her strong start to the season Sunday, logging a new career high with 38 points. Much of her work was done at the free-throw line, where she made all 15 attempts. She has now made 26 of 26 free throws over the last two games. In four appearances this season, Sykes has averaged 24.3 points, 4.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.8 steals in 33.3 minutes per contest

Drops 27 points in Friday's loss Sykes posted 27 points (7-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 11-11 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and four steals over 35 minutes during the Tempo's 99-95 loss to the Sparks on Friday.

Impact It wasn't the most efficient night from the field for Sykes, but she came alive in the fourth quarter with 14 points (including 7-for-7 from the charity stripe) to help the Tempo close the gap. She is off to a strong start this season, and through three games she is averaging 19.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.7 steals over 31.7 minutes per contest, though she's connecting on just 31.4 percent of her field-goal attempts (including 14.3 percent from three on 4.7 3PA/G). Sykes is getting more offensive volume in Toronto than she has anywhere else in her 10-year WNBA career, and improved efficiency from the field would elevate her fantasy production.

Finishes with 18 points in win Sykes finished with 18 points (5-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block across 33 minutes in Wednesday's 86-73 win over Seattle.

Impact Sykes was more productive on the scoring end Wednesday after finishing with 14 points in Friday's 68-65 loss to Washington. However, she continued to have trouble shooting the ball. Through the first two games of the 2026 campaign, the 32-year-old has gone 9-for-32 from the field while failing to make any of her seven tries from behind the three-point line. That said, Sykes historically hasn't been the most accurate shooter, although her numbers should improve as the season progresses.

Struggles in Tempo debut Sykes notched 14 points (4-18 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 6-9 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals across 28 minutes during Friday's 68-65 loss to the Mystics.

Impact Sykes saw her efficiency from the field dip below 40 percent during the 2025 season, and that trend continued in Friday's regular-season opener both within and beyond the arc. She still managed to finish as the Tempo's second-leading scorer behind Marina Mabrey (27 points), though no other Toronto player scored in double digits aside from Sykes and Mabrey. Sykes did contribute defensively with three steals, a mark she met five times during the 2025 regular season.
