The Dallas Wings signed former Los Angeles Sparks' guard Grace Berger to a seven-day contract on Wednesday, per Scott Agness. A former first-round draft choice in 2023, Berger was selected by the Indiana Fever before being signed by L.A. in mid-June. Now, she joins rookie sensation Paige Bueckers in Dallas.
The Sparks closed a dominant 99-80 home win over the Washington Mystics on Tuesday night — cementing their first set of back-to-back victory thus far in 2025. The 99-point mark was a season-high for Los Angeles. It converted a 38 total field goals, also a season-best.
Dearica Hamby led with a game-high 26 points — joining Rickea Jackson (22), Plum (20) and Azura Stevens (15) as the four Sparks' starters in double figures.
