Chennedy Carter just put up the most ridiculous statline you’ll see

The former Chicago Sky star led her Wuhan team to an upset playoff victory in the Women’s Chinese Basketball Association.

Chennedy Carter has yet to be signed by a WNBA team this offseason — but she continues to dominate the overseas competition.

Carter, who last played for the Chicago Sky, just posted a ridiculous statline in an upset playoff victory in the Women’s Chinese Basketball Association (WCBA): 52 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals.

Carter plays for the 13th-seeded Wuhan club, who defeated the 4th-seeded Shanxi 88-86 in the opening game of the WCBA playoffs. Notably, she shot 6-11 from three in the postseason match-up — a particularly impressive feat considering she’s not known for her three-point shooting. She turned to social media after the win.

This season in China, Carter is averaging 32 points per game — almost 8 points more than the league’s second-leading scorer, Myisha Hines-Allen. She’s also averaging 6.3 assists per game — second most in the WCBA — and 3 steals, which leads the league.

Despite her strong overseas play, and the fact she’s coming off of a career year with the Sky, Carter has yet to be signed by a WNBA team. Carter averaged 17.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists last season, and shot a career-high 48.7% from the field. The four-year WNBA veteran has spent two seasons with the Atlanta Dream (2020-2021), one with the Los Angeles Sparks (2022), and one with the Sky (2024). She’s very likely the most talented free agent on the market who played for a WNBA team last season; Emma Meesseman and Elena Delle Donne are also both still available, but neither played in the WNBA last year.

Per the Chicago Sun-Time’s Annie Costabile, the Sky’s decision not to sign Carter was “tied to locker room issues and an overall concern that re-signing her would negatively impact free agency.”

Whether a WNBA team is willing to overlook those concerns remains to be seen, but Carter’s overseas play is giving teams plenty of reason to consider adding her to the roster. Her Wuhan team is still in the playoff mix — and Carter has been far and away the league’s top performer.
