Julie Vanloo - WNBA News, Rumors, & Updates

Sparks guard continues to move at her own pace—and it's still working Sparks guard Julie Vanloo had a usual journey to the WNBA. Now, she has added another milestone late in her career.

NOVEMBER 5, 2025 • HIGHPOSTHOOPS.COM

Logs four assists off bench Vanloo had two points (1-7 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists over 21 minutes during Thursday's 103-75 loss to Las Vegas.

Impact Although Vanloo came off the bench once again Thursday, she played 21 minutes, which was her highest total since joining the Sparks. The 32-year-old began the year with the Valkyries and averaged 4.6 points, 4.1 assists, 1.9 rebounds and 0.7 steals in 20.0 minutes per game over nine appearances (two starts), but she was let go upon her return from EuroBasket. She had a somewhat inconsistent role after joining the Sparks, averaging 2.2 points, 1.2 assists and 0.6 rebounds in 10.3 minutes per game over 22 appearances. Vanloo will be a reserved free agent this winter, and it's possible that she has a chance to explore other opportunities.

Scores five points Vanloo supplied five points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two assists in four minutes during Wednesday's 81-80 win over Dallas.

Impact For the second time out of her last three games, Vanloo was held to four minutes or fewer. With such a minimal workload, she's miles from fantasy relevance.

AUGUST 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sees 14 minutes in loss Vanloo closed with six points (2-4 FG, 2-4 3Pt) and one assist over 14 minutes during Tuesday's 105-97 loss to New York.

Impact Vanloo remains very difficult to trust in fantasy with her modest production in a limited role. On the season, Vanloo is averaging 3.8 points, 2.3 assists, 1.1 rebounds and 0.5 steals in 14.6 minutes.

AUGUST 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to five minutes Vanloo provided three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) in five minutes during Thursday's 102-91 victory over the Sun.

Impact For the third time out of her last five appearances, Vanloo was held to single-digit minutes off the bench. Until her role changes, and there's no guarantee it does, she'll be safe to ignore in most formats.

AUGUST 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to 10 minutes Vanloo finished with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) over 10 minutes during Tuesday's 100-91 victory over the Fever.

Impact Vanloo remains miles off the fantasy radar in most formats. In 15.2 minutes per game this season, she holds averages of 3.9 points, 2.6 assists and 1.1 rebounds.

AUGUST 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scoreless in 11 minutes Vanloo logged zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 11 minutes during Tuesday's 89-74 loss to Las Vegas.

Impact Vanloo continues to underwhelm from a fantasy perspective. Across 18 appearances, Vanloo holds averages of 4.1 points, 2.8 assists, 1.2 rebounds and 0.4 steals in 16.1 minutes.

JULY 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fares well in limited minutes Vanloo ended Thursday's 101-86 win over the Sun with nine points (3-4 FG, 3-4 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 16 minutes.

Impact Vanloo was in a slump coming into Thursday's game with a combined three points in her previous three games. She had the hot hand Thursday, however, with this being her third game of the campaign with at least three makes from beyond the arc. Vanloo remains a hit-or-miss fantasy asset off the bench.

JULY 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in win Vanloo produced three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 93-86 victory over the Mystics.

Impact Vanloo continues to see minutes in the teens consistently, though that hasn't translated to much fantasy appeal. Across 15 games this season, Vanloo holds averages of 4.1 points, 3.3 assists, 1.3 rebounds and 0.4 steals in 17.0 minutes per contest.

JULY 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scoreless in 16 minutes Vanloo produced zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and three assists in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 99-80 victory over the Mystics.

Impact Vanloo was held scoreless for the second game in a row and for the third time out of her last five outings. Since joining the Sparks, Vanloo has played just 11.6 minutes per night.

JULY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scoreless in 13 minutes Vanloo chipped in zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and two assists over 13 minutes during Sunday's 92-88 win over the Sun.

Impact Fresh off a 15-point performance, Vanloo fell back to earth Sunday. Her production has been too volatile to rely on in most fantasy formats. Across 13 appearances, she's seeing 17.1 minutes per night with 4.5 points, 3.4 assists and 1.5 rebounds.

Catches fire from downtown Vanloo registered 15 points (5-7 FG, 5-7 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists over 17 minutes during Thursday's 91-82 loss to the Lynx.

Impact Vanloo knocked down a team-high five triples and led the Sparks in bench scoring, but it wasn't enough to bring home a victory. Thursday's performance was a great sign after she'd been held to three total points in her first two appearances since signing on with LA.

Impact Vanloo has been away from Golden State since June 10 to compete in EuroBasket, but once she's set to active, Vanloo won't be playing for the Valkyries.

She shot just 29.2 percent from the field and 21.1 percent from three. Expect Vanloo to receive interest on the open market from teams in need of a true point guard.

Steps away from Golden State Vanloo has stepped away from the Valkyries to compete in EuroBasket, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.

Impact Vanloo is the second Valkyrie to step away for this reason. With Vanloo away from the team for the foreseeable future, this will be a big opportunity for Carla Leite to step up. Monique Billings and Kate Martin could also be asked to step up in Vanloo's absence.

Chips in with eight assists Vanloo closed with two points (1-6 FG, 0-5 3Pt), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 89-81 win over Los Angeles.

Impact Vanloo moved back into the starting lineup, but she wasn't terribly effective from the field, especially from behind the three-point line. However, she salvaged the stat line with eight assists and five rebounds. The assists tied her season best, as she also had eight in a game on May 29 against the Liberty, and her five rebounds were the most so far this season.
