Doniyah Cliney – It was reported last week that Cliney would sign a training camp contract with Connecticut. As of the close of business Monday, that still has not happened. Cliney was still playing in Europe Sunday when she won a league championship, which could be a reason for the delay.

Kaela Davis – Davis bounced around the league last season but finished strong when she was forced into playing for injury-depleted Phoenix in the playoffs. Davis scored 23 points in an elimination game, enough to seemingly secure a roster invite this season. However, Davis suffered a torn Achilles in January while playing in the offseason. The injury likely keeps Davis out for the entire 2023 WNBA season.
