The Dallas Wings are making a serious effort to snap their two-season streak of missing the WNBA playoffs.
The team has one of the top young stars in the league in 2025 No. 1 overall pick Paige Bueckers, it re-signed star guard Arike Ogunbowale to a multi-year deal, and it just drafted UConn’s Azzi Fudd No. 1 overall in Monday’s WNBA draft.
And now, the Wings have added even more enforcements as they signed three-time WNBA champion Alysha Clark to give the team a stable, experienced veteran presence with a track record of winning.
“Breaking: 3x-WNBA champion Alysha Clark has agreed to a one-year deal to join the Dallas Wings, her agent, Jessica Holtz of CAA, told ESPN,” Alexa Philippou reported. “Clark brings experience and championship pedigree to a surging Wings franchise that had a productive free agency and now boasts the last two No. 1 overall picks.”
Clark, a WNBA All-Defensive first team selection and former Sixth Player of the Year, averaged 3.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game across 42 contests last season, which she split between the Seattle Storm and Washington Mystics.
Bueckers and Ogunbowale led the Wings in scoring last season, averaging 19.2 and .5 points per game, respectively, and Fudd is coming off a breakout year in which she averaged 17.3 points, 3.1 assists, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.5 steals per game for a UConn team that went 38-1 and made it to the Final Four this season.
