Back to bench Westbeld will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Aces.

Impact Westbeld got the start in the team's previous contest due to Angel Reese being suspended, but she will return to the bench with Elizabeth Williams taking Reese's starting spot Sunday. Westbeld has seen a limited role in her last three games off the bench, seeing just 9.3 minutes per contest.

Will start sans Reece Westbeld will be in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Fever.

Impact With Reece serving a one-game suspension for being assessed an eighth technical foul, the team will turn to Westbeld to be a starter alongside Kamilla Cardoso in the frontcourt. It will be the first time she's been in the starting lineup during the 2025 campaign. She is currently averaging 3.0 points and 2.1 rebounds per game, shooting 32.9 percent from the floor and 34.5 percent from deep.

Scoreless in 11 minutes Westbeld had zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and two assists in 11 minutes during Wednesday's 71-62 loss to Connecticut.

Impact This was Westbeld's lowest workload since July 29. She's had some positive moments off the bench lately, but her role is too inconsistent for fantasy managers to trust her most nights.

Scores season high in loss Westbeld closed Saturday's 92-70 loss to the Fever with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes.

Impact The rookie scored a season-high mark in points, finishing as one of two Sky players in double figures. With Angel Reese (back) sidelined in the club's past five games, Westbeld has averaged 5.8 points and 3.2 rebounds while shooting 48.0 percent from the field across 17.2 minutes per game during that span.

Sees 15 minutes in loss Westbeld finished Thursday's 86-65 loss to Atlanta with six points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 15 minutes.

Impact Despite the absence of Angel Reese (back), Westbeld has seen only a mild increase in minutes. She's seen 15 or fewer minutes in three of her last four games, though her role is worth monitoring closely down the stretch.

AUGUST 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited output off bench Westbeld posted two points (1-4 FG), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 13 minutes during Tuesday's 78-64 victory over the Mystics.

Impact After scoring nine points in 22 minutes in Sunday's blowout loss to the Mercury, Westbeld failed to make a big impact in her handful of minutes Tuesday. The Sky aren't playing much for these days, so maybe Westbeld can carve out a larger role to close out the season.

AUGUST 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Effective in 22 minutes Westbeld provided nine points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one block across 22 minutes during Sunday's 83-67 loss to the Mercury.

Impact After seeing a combined 20 minutes in her previous two outings, Westbeld took advantage of some garbage time Sunday. With the Sky sitting at 7-21 on the season, there's reason to believe that Westbeld could become more involved down the stretch.

AUGUST 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sees six minutes in loss Westbeld contributed no counting stats in six minutes during Tuesday's 103-86 loss to the Mystics.

Impact The Sky have numerous injuries right now, so it's pretty telling if Westbeld managed to see just six minutes Tuesday. She remains miles off the fantasy radar.

JULY 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 23 minutes in loss Westbeld finished Sunday's 93-78 loss to the Fever with four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 23 minutes.

Impact Angel Reese (back), Ariel Atkins (leg) and Moriah Jefferson (leg) were all out for the Sky, allowing Westbeld to eclipse 23 minutes for the third time out of her last four appearances. She hasn't made much of an impact in fantasy, however, so she's just a short-term streamer in deeper formats for the moment.

JULY 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fares well in limited minutes Westbeld amassed nine points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one rebound in 12 minutes during Tuesday's 91-68 loss to the Lynx.

Impact Ariel Atkins (leg) missed her second game in a row, and the Sky were blown out of this contest early, allowing Westbeld and Hailey Van Lith to see additional minutes. Westbeld has had some bright moments recently, and with the Sky continuing to struggle, she may be worth keeping an eye on.

JULY 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Unable to take advantage of chance Westbeld finished Wednesday's 86-49 loss to the Dream with two points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 25 minutes.

Impact Westbeld was seeing a much larger role with both Ariel Atkins (leg) and Angel Reese (leg) sidelined, but she was horrific from the field, hitting just 12.5 percent. That wasn't much worse than the rest of the team, however, as it was just 25.4 percent (18-of-71) in the 37-point rout on its home floor. Westbeld did salvage the day somewhat with the high number of rebounds and two blocks, however.

JULY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Pulls down six rebounds Westbeld recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), six rebounds and one steal over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 81-79 loss to the Mystics.

Impact Westbeld, who made her eighth appearance of the season, pulled down a season-high six rebounds in the loss. She's played a minimal role as a rookie, but there is a path to more minutes if she continues to impress.

JULY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sees five minutes Westbeld closed Sunday's 80-75 loss to Minnesota with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over five minutes.

JULY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Lands with Chicago Westbeld was selected by the Sky with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft on Monday.

Impact Westbeld missed a good chunk of her final season at Notre Dame with an injury, but she's done enough throughout her collegiate career to prove she belongs in the WNBA, averaging 14.4 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.1 blocks a year ago. Her strong shooting ability should translate nicely to the next level as she'll presumably slot in as a role player with her new squad.
