The 25-year-old sustained a knee injury on Opening Night, which forced her to miss 16 games. However, she remained healthy over the second half of the season and consistently saw double-digit minutes off the bench. In total, she averaged 7.5 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.6 steals in 18.4 minutes per game over 28 appearances. Burrell will be a reserved free agent during the offseason, and it's possible that the Sparks will express interest in bringing her back for the 2026 campaign.
