Alanna Smith

28-Year-Old ForwardF
 Minnesota Lynx  WNBA
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Smith had relatively limited production over her first four seasons in the league but stepped into a prominent role during her first season with the Sky in 2023. The 27-year-old came off the bench in her first three appearances of the year but claimed a starting job when Morgan Bertsch sustained an injury and didn't relinquish that job down the stretch, even when Bertsch was cleared to return. Smith wasn't particularly dominant in any particular area but generally had enough production in the scoring and rebounding columns to generate solid fantasy lines. The 27-year-old averaged 9.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 26.5 minutes per game, all the best marks of her career by a considerable margin. In 2024, she may have to settle for a reserve role in Minnesota since the team has Napheesa Collier, Diamond Miller (knee), Jessica Shepard (ankle) and Dorka Juhasz in the frontcourt, but it's also possible Tiffany Mitchell shifts to the bench. Regardless of her starting status, Smith should still be able to carve out her fair share of playing time with her new team. Read Past Outlooks
Career year in Minnesota in 2024
FMinnesota Lynx
October 29, 2024
Smith wrapped up the year averaging 10.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.4 steals over 26.5 minutes in 39 appearances in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Smith took advantage of an expanded role in the starting lineup with the Lynx in her first season in Minnesota after signing with the team in free agency last offseason. Smith tied a career high in minutes played while posting career-best marks in scoring, assists, blocks, steals and three-point percentage. With Smith under contract in 2025, look for her to return as a key player to the Lynx again next summer.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Smith logged minimal action for the Mercury in 2021, averaging just 1.2 points and 1.3 rebounds over 6.5 minutes per game. She wasn't a regular part of the rotation but landed a training camp contract with the Fever in February. The 25-year-old will likely have to compete for a roster spot ahead of the 2022 campaign and isn't worth rostering in most fantasy leagues, even if she obtains a roster spot. She'll have a good amount of competition in tow, with the Fever sporting four of the first 10 picks in the 2022 WNBA Draft.
