Holding down backup center role Dantas accumulated three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and one rebound over 11 minutes during Wednesday's 87-78 win over the Sparks.

Impact Dantas is reprising her role in the top backup center spot behind starter Aliyah Boston, which could make it difficult for the former to offer consistent fantasy appeal while the latter is healthy. Dantas has logged fewer than 14 minutes in back-to-back games to begin the new year.

Efficient in preseason finale Dantas generated 16 points (5-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and a steal in 23 minutes during Saturday's 105-57 preseason win over the Nigeria National Team.

Impact Dantas went 2-for-11 from the floor and 0-for-8 from beyond the arc during Thursday's preseason loss to Dallas, but she bounced back in a significant way Saturday and finished with the second-highest scoring total on the team while also contributing in other areas. Dantas has spent the past two seasons with the Fever, averaging 4.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 11.1 minutes per game while playing exclusively off the bench across 58 regular-season appearances. Assuming she makes Indiana's Opening Night roster, Dantas will presumably profile as a streaming option in fantasy once the regular season begins.
