Alysha Clark, Las Vegas Aces (available in 69.6% of ESPN leagues)

Clark has started every game for the Aces this season in place of Chelsea Gray and has responded with solid all-around contributions. She isn't spectacular in any one category, but her 8.3 PPG, 5.3 RPG, 2.3 SPG, 2.0 APG and 1.5 3PG are beneficial streaming numbers for a fantasy hoops squad with open flex spots.

Sophie Cunningham, Phoenix Mercury (available in 49.8% of leagues)

Cunningham moved into the starting lineup on Tuesday and had a solid game. She notched nine rebounds, six points, three assists, three steals and a blocked shot in 30 minutes. Cunningham is coming off a four-game stretch which she averaged 10.8 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 2.3 3PG, 2.3 SPG and 1.3 APG in 25.5 MPG off the bench.
