Scores 16 points with eight boards Hamby produced 16 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two steals over 29 minutes in Wednesday's 87-78 loss to the Fever.

Impact The efficiency was a big improvement for Hamby, who shot 4-for-11 from the floor and 4-for-8 at the stripe in Sunday's season-opening loss to the Aces, but she still struggled with turnovers. Through the first two games of the season, Hamby has tossed away seven total turnovers.

Efficient in preseason finale Hamby recorded 13 points (4-5 FG, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 19 minutes during Sunday's 85-75 preseason win over Portland.

Impact Hamby was productive in limited action as the Sparks' new frontcourt looked comfortable together for the first time this preseason. Hamby is coming off a career-best 2025 campaign in which she averaged 18.4 points and 7.9 rebounds while shooting 57.2 percent from the floor. With Nneka Ogwumike now slotted alongside her in the frontcourt, Hamby figures to continue feasting in the paint while her new running mate stretches the defense from the perimeter. The Sparks open the regular season at home against the Aces on Sunday.

Leads team in steals during loss Hamby amassed 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and three steals over 27 minutes during Thursday's 103-75 loss to Las Vegas.

Impact Although the Sparks had already been eliminated from the playoffs ahead of Thursday's matchup, Hamby put up a well-rounded stat line during the regular-season finale, including a team-best mark in steals. Hamby's production remained steady in 2025 following her breakout season last year, as she averaged 18.4 points, 7.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.5 blocks in 31.2 minutes per game while appearing in every game for a third consecutive year. Hamby is slated to become an unrestricted free agent ahead of her age-32 season, and she'll presumably draw plenty of interest from around the league.
