Erupts in loss to Fever Taylor finished with 30 points (10-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 21 minutes in Thursday's 114-106 loss to the Fever.

Impact Taylor went scoreless in her previous two appearances ahead of Thursday's contest. However, she responded in a big way by scoring a career-high 30 points. The rookie is now averaging 9.5 points, 1.1 assists, 1.0 rebounds, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks over 13.5 minutes in 11 regular-season games throughout her inaugural campaign. With the Sky dropping eight of their last nine games and looking for answers, it wouldn't be surprising to see Taylor receive more action moving ahead, potentially even moving into the starting lineup.

Leads Chicago in scoring off bench Taylor tallied 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four steals, one rebound and one assist over 20 minutes in Tuesday's 90-72 loss to Washington.

Impact Taylor didn't have it going from beyond the arc, but she was able to score in other ways en route to a team-high point total. In addition, her four steals set both a personal best and a game high. After averaging 7.0 minutes across her first three appearances of the season, Taylor has logged at least 20 minutes in each of the last four games. She has rewarded that increased opportunity with a scoring punch off the bench, reaching double figures in three of those four contests.

Dishes out four assists in loss Taylor tallied seven points (3-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt), four assists and two rebounds across 20 minutes in Friday's 79-58 loss to the Lynx.

Impact Although she logged 20-plus minutes for a third straight game, Taylor was unable to replicate her success from Wednesday's loss to Toronto, when she erupted for 27 points. The 24-year-old guard struggled mightily from three-point range Friday but still made an impact, leading the Sky in assists. While she's been seeing significant run, Taylor's role could decline in the near future as Gabriela Jaquez (knee), Courtney Vandersloot (knee) and DiJonai Carrington (foot) work their way back into the rotation.

Explodes for 27 points Taylor notched 27 points (9-22 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Wednesday's 111-104 loss to the Tempo.

Impact Taylor came out of nowhere to deliver a 27-point performance -- that was more than the points she had scored in her previous four appearances combined. While Taylor attempted 22 shots in this game, she was far from efficient, and her bench role certainly limits her fantasy potential.

MAY 28 • ROTOWIRE

Paces bench in loss Taylor tallied 11 points (3-12 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 20 minutes in Saturday's 85-75 loss to the Lynx.

Impact Taylor struggled with efficiency but still led the second unit in scoring Saturday, logging career highs in minutes and points. The 24-year-old guard finished as the Sky's third-leading scorer and also recorded the first steal of her career. She could see increased playing time when Aicha Coulibaly (coach's decision), who is signed to a developmental contract, sits, though Azura Stevens should eventually see a bump in minutes. Additionally, the Sky are still awaiting the returns of DiJonai Carrington (foot) and Courtney Vandersloot (knee).

Scores five in loss Taylor had five points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and one block over seven minutes during Friday's 91-83 loss to the Mercury.

Impact Taylor played four minutes during Saturday's Opening Night win over the Fire, but she didn't make it off the bench during Wednesday's victory over Golden State. However, she saw some playing time Friday and logged the first regular-season points of her career. Taylor could continue to see occasional playing time while the Sky deal with early-season absences, but she hasn't seen enough opportunities to generate much fantasy production.

MAY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Drops 23 points in defeat Taylor posted 23 points (7-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-11 FT), a rebound and a block in 17 minutes during Wednesday's 87-78 preseason loss to Atlanta.

Impact Taylor came off the bench for a second consecutive preseason game Wednesday and led the team in scoring by a considerable margin, as no other player scored in double figures for the Sky. Taylor logged six points, five assists and two rebounds in 11 minutes during Saturday's preseason opener against the Mercury, and it's not yet clear whether Wednesday's strong performance will be enough to earn her a spot on the Opening Night roster.
