8 Pick in 2024 Draft and the Right to Exchange First-round Picks in 2026
Minnesota Lynx Trade First-Round Pick to Chicago Sky
Lynx Acquire Stefany Dolson in the Deal
The Minnesota Lynx have traded their 2024 first-round pick and the right to exchange first-round picks in 2026 to the Chicago Sky in exchange for center Stefany Dolson.
The Lynx had the No. 8 pick in the 2024 draft, while the Sky had the No. 11 pick. The right to exchange first-round picks in 2026 gives the Lynx the option to swap picks with the Sky if they have a better draft position.
Dolson, a 6-foot-5 center, has averaged 8.0 points and 5.5 rebounds per game over her career. She has played for the New York Liberty, Dallas Wings, and Connecticut Sun before joining the Lynx.
The Lynx are hoping that Dolson can help them improve their interior presence and rebounding. The team struggled in those areas last season, finishing 14-20 and missing the playoffs.
The Sky, meanwhile, are looking to add another young talent to their roster. The team has a lot of potential, but they need to add some more depth and experience.
