2025 Fantasy Outlook

Charles has bounced around the league in recent years, but her on-court talent has been undeniable throughout her career. She signed a one-year deal with the Dream ahead of the 2024 campaign after she sat out the year before, and she didn't appear to show any rust in her age-35 season, averaging 14.9 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 29.7 minutes per game while starting in all 39 of her regular-season appearances. In 2025, she'll return to the team that drafted her first overall in 2010, as she signed a contract with the Sun during the offseason. Connecticut lost Alyssa Thomas and DeWanna Bonner over the winter, so Charles should have an opportunity to stake a significant claim in the team's frontcourt. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2024

2023

2022

Charles was considered one of the top fantasy options heading into 2022 after she averaged 23.4 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 33.3 minutes per game over 27 appearances with the Mystics in 2021. She was relatively productive after joining the Mercury in 2022 but abruptly agreed to a contract divorce in the middle of the season. She then headed to Seattle, where she had relatively inconsistent production down the stretch. The 35-year-old will likely be in the mix for a prominent role with Atlanta and has plenty of fantasy upside, but she carries risk due to her recent strained relationships with her teams. However, Charles was teammates with Dream head coach Tanisha Wright for three seasons in New York between 2015 and 2019, so this is an intriguing landing spot.

Charles hasn't officially found a home for the 2023 season yet, but she will seemingly sign with one of the contending teams with enough cap space to add her. Charles bounced between Phoenix and Seattle last season, pursuing a WNBA title, but she came up empty again. Charles - entering her age-33 season in 2023 - saw a sizable decline in her output following the move to Seattle, logging just 25.2 minutes per game with the Sorm after averaging 33.1 minutes in Phoenix. Charles still produced at an elite fantasy level, filling the stat sheet with numbers worthy of a top-20 draft slot. She is a high-risk, high-reward fantasy proposition for 2023 because she could be a highly valuable fantasy option if she finds a home, but there is no guarantee that will be the case.

Charles joined the Mystics last season in search of a championship, but significant absences led to a subpar campaign for Washington en route to the team's first missed playoffs since 2016. Charles certainly wasn't to blame, as she posted a career-best 23.4 points per game to go with 9.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks while shooting a career-best 36.5 percent from deep. She joined the Mercury this offseason to make another run at a title. The plan was for Charles to slot in as the team's stretch four with Brittney Griner operating down low. But with Griner's availability very much in jeopardy as of mid-March, Phoenix could utilize Charles more at center than initially planned.
