2025 Fantasy Outlook
After averaging 8.9 points and 3.7 rebounds for Phoenix in 2023, Onyenwere's averages dropped to 6.6 points and 1.8 rebounds for Chicago in 2024. However, she still received a qualifying offer from the Sky and signed a one-year deal to return for a second season. Elizabeth Williams is healthy, while Chicago added Rebecca Allen, Courtney Vandersloot and Kia Nurse this offseason to replace Lindsay Allen, Brianna Turner and Isabelle Harrison. Chennedy Carter also remains a free agent ahead of the 2025 WNBA Draft. Despite all of the movement, Onyenwere's role in 2025 should remain somewhat similar to last season. She will likely play close to 20 minutes per game and be a spot starter when needed, but it'd be surprising if she delivered consistent fantasy production. Read Past Outlooks

Quiet off bench
Onyenwere registered three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over six minutes during Sunday's 92-85 win over the Sparks.
ANALYSIS
Onyenwere moved back to the second unit Sunday, while Elizabeth Williams got the starting nod and made the most of her opportunity. Onyenwere's production remains limited with an average of 12.6 minutes per night across 16 appearances, but she's a candidate for increased minutes until Kamilla Cardoso (not injury related) returns to the team.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
After two years in New York, Onyenwere moved to Phoenix and thrived for a struggling Mercury squad. She averaged 8.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.5 steals-plus-blocks in 23.8 minutes across 40 appearances -- all career highs. This offseason, she was traded to Chicago, along with Brianna Turner and four draft picks, in the deal that sent Kahleah Copper to Phoenix. Diamond DeShields and Isabelle Harrison both missed 2023 due to knee injuries, so their health in 2024 will play a key factor in Onyenwere's playing time. The Sky also have the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft after the blockbuster trade and could add another frontcourt option. Onyenwere's all-around skill set helped her flirt with top-50 status last year, but she isn't elite enough in any single category to be considered a must-start player in fantasy if she isn't playing close to 25 minutes per game.
