Napheesa Collier

Collier has played an important role in Minnesota's frontcourt across her first three seasons in the league, and she averaged a career-high 16.2 points along with 6.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 34.6 minutes per game last year. However, the Lynx will have to search elsewhere to replace her production to begin the 2022 campaign, as she's pregnant and is expected to give birth to her first child in May. As a result, the 25-year-old is on track to miss a significant portion of the season, and it wouldn't be surprising to see her limited once she's cleared to return following her lengthy layoff. Collier should be a strong fantasy option in future seasons, but she has limited potential in 2022 given her expected absence. In her stead, Damiris Dantas, Crystal Dangerfield and Bridget Carleton should have the opportunity to carve out more prominent roles.
