Won't play Sunday with leg injury Bell has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Fever due to a right leg injury.

Impact Bell may have picked up the injury during the Aces' 106-58 blowout victory over the Mercury on Saturday, when she played 17 minutes and finished with three points (1-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt), four assists and three rebounds. Bell is averaging 11.2 minutes per game off the bench this season, and that playing time could be absorbed by rookie Justine Pissott, who made the most of Saturday's garbage time by scoring 19 points in the fourth quarter.

Quiet campaign continues Bell posted five points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes during Thursday's 88-80 victory over the Fire.

Impact Bell continues to handle a muted role for the defending-champion Aces in 2026. She has averaged 2.9 points, 1.5 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 10.6 minutes per contest across her last 13 games, scoring in single digits in all but one contest.

Logs 14 minutes in win Bell produced five points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt), one assist and one steal in 14 minutes during Sunday's 92-73 victory over the Valkyries.

Impact Bell picked up a few extra minutes because of the lopsided win. Overall this season, she's averaging 1.3 points and 1.3 rebounds in 11.2 minutes per contest.

JUNE 22 • ROTOWIRE

Hauls in four rebounds Bell amassed two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and four rebounds across eight minutes during Monday's 101-91 victory over the Storm.

Impact The fifth-year guard remains mostly a depth piece for the defending-champion Aces. Bell has averaged just 1.0 points, 1.9 rebounds, 0.6 assists in 11.9 minutes per contest across nine games this season, shooting a woeful 15.0 percent from the field.

JUNE 9 • ROTOWIRE

Finally gets into scoring column Bell accumulated six points (2-6 FG, 2-6 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 79-69 win over the Sparks.

Impact Bell scored her first points of the year Tuesday, also logging a season-high 22 minutes. She's averaged 1.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 13.3 minutes per contest over six games this season.

JUNE 3 • ROTOWIRE

Sees nine minutes in loss Bell contributed one assist and one steal over nine minutes during Thursday's 95-87 loss to the Wings.

Impact Bell continues to be used sparingly by the Aces. Across four appearances this season, she's averaging a mere 11.0 minutes with 0.0 points and 1.8 rebounds per game.

MAY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Plays eight minutes in win Bell accumulated zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one assist and one block in eight minutes during Sunday's 105-78 victory over the Sparks.

Impact The Aces have had a pair of lopsided scores to begin the regular season, as they lost by 33 points to the Mercury on Saturday before Sunday's comfortable win over Los Angeles. Bell played 19 minutes off the bench during Saturday's matchup but didn't see as many opportunities in the second half of the back-to-back set. She started in 16 of her 35 regular-season appearances during the 2025 campaign, averaging 4.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 12.2 minutes per game, but the Aces have rolled with NaLyssa Smith and Stephanie Talbot as starters alongside A'ja Wilson, Jackie Young and Chelsea Gray to begin the 2026 regular season, which limits Bell's fantasy upside.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Productive as reserve Bell tallied 14 points (5-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 26 minutes during Sunday's 94-78 preseason win over the Japan National Team.

Impact Bell led the Aces' bench players in playing time during Sunday's preseason opener and put forth production in multiple areas in the victory. The 26-year-old began the 2025 campaign as a reserve but ended the season as a starter and ultimately started in 16 of her 35 regular-season appearances, averaging 4.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 12.2 minutes per game. Bell will likely have to settle for a bench role early in the 2026 season, but she could make a push for playing time, especially if the Aces deal with injuries at some point.

Inks training camp deal with Aces Bell agreed to a training camp contract with Las Vegas on Thursday.

Impact Bell will receive an opportunity to compete for a roster spot in the Las Vegas backcourt after putting pen to paper on a training camp deal. She's spent four previous seasons as a member of the Aces and has yet to truly make a name for herself, though she did set career highs in points (4.2) and rebounds (1.8) per game over 35 appearances a year ago.

Extended qualifying offer The Aces extended a restricted qualifying offer to Bell on Tuesday.

Impact Bell won her third WNBA championship with the Aces last season and set career-high marks in minutes (12.2), points (4.2) and rebounds (1.8) per game. While not a major producer, Bell was a key part of Las Vegas' rotation, starting 16 of her 35 regular-season appearances.

FEBRUARY 5 • WNBA.COM

Career year with Las Vegas in 2025 Bell concluded the 2025 WNBA season with 4.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.7 assists over 35 games with the Las Vegas Aces.

Impact Bell saw her production increase in her fourth WNBA season in 2025, taking the court in 35 of the 44 games while starting in 16 contests. The three-time WNBA champion posted career-high marks in minutes, points and rebounds, and now enters the offseason as a restricted free agent. Las Vegas will have the first chance to sign Bell with her restricted tag, so if the Aces want her back in 2026 they have the advantage to make it happen.

Scoreless in Game 3 start Bell closed Wednesday's 90-88 win over the Mercury with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one block and one steal across 11 minutes in Game 3 of the WNBA Finals

Impact Bell continues to contribute very little despite her starting status, as head coach Becky Hammon continues to play Bell minimally, before turning it over to veteran Jewell Loyd for her leadership and experience. Bell ended up with a minus-13 rating in Game 3, easily the worst of any of the Aces.

Scoreless in just six minutes Bell produced no counting stats over six minutes during Tuesday's 107-98 victory over the Fever.

Impact Bell started yet again, but head coach Becky Hammons once again relied upon Jewell Loyd for a much larger role. Bell is likely to start in Game 1 on Friday against the Mercury in the WNBA Finals, but she does next to nothing despite a starting role.

OCTOBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Posts four points in Game 2 start Bell produced four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 10 minutes during Tuesday's Game 2 90-68 victory over the Fever.

Impact Bell made another start, but as has been the case for coach Becky Hammon, she leaned upon the veteran leadership of Jewell Loyd off the bench for a much larger role. Look for Bell to continue seeing a minimal role in Game 3 and beyond despite her starting status.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scoreless in 20 minutes Bell amassed zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist across 20 minutes during Thursday's 74-73 win over the Storm.

Impact Bell isn't known for her scoring prowess, but her energy was evident throughout this series. Through the opening three games of the postseason, Bell is averaging 4.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per game.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Accurate in Game 2 start Bell closed Tuesday's 86-83 loss to the Storm with seven points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and one rebound across 11 minutes.

Impact Bell was extremely accurate from the field in her limited duty, but head coach Becky Hammon obviously felt more comfortable using veteran Jewell Loyd for 29 minutes off the bench, relying upon her experience and leadership.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Available for Game 1 Bell (leg) is available for Sunday's Game 1 against the Storm, Nekias Duncan of Dunkerspot Podcast reports.

Impact Bell missed the last two regular-season games due to a right leg injury, but she will return to the lineup for Sunday's postseason opener. Bell averaged 3.0 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 15.0 minutes per contest over her previous five appearances.
