Azurá Stevens has hit her stride after returning to her natural power forward position because of the injuries. She’s entering the break with a five-game scoring streak of more than 10 points a game, giving the team a legitimate second scoring option after Ogwumike.
On Wednesday, Stevens had a season-high 22 points, her most since 2020, with 12 rebounds. Miller called it her best game in a Sparks uniform.
Stevens’ productivity in this position can help offset the absence of Chiney Ogwumike, who has missed five games with a foot injury, and take pressure off Dearica Hamby.
Hamby, who gave birth in March and planned to return just before the All-Star break, has already started 16 games, averaging 9.4 points with 6.2 rebounds in 25.6 minutes.
