The Dallas Wings 2019 were led offensively by Arike Ogunbowale, whose scoring and shot creation formed the centerpiece of the attack, while Glory Johnson and Satou Sabally supplied valuable frontcourt scoring and rebounding. Allisha Gray added efficient complementary production on the wing. Dallas played at a fast pace and generated balanced contributions across the roster, but inconsistent defense and below-average shooting efficiency hindered the team’s overall performance.

Allisha Gray Starter/Star (1.10) 30.4 Medium (1.10) 10.6 4.1 2.3 1.6 44.53 Rather than forcing offence, Gray thrived as a two-way connector who defended top wings and finished efficiently around Dallas’ young backcourt.

Kayla Thornton Starter/Star (1.10) 30.4 Medium (1.10) 10.4 5.3 1.8 1.2 45.50 Thornton embraced the difficult defensive assignments every night while providing rebounding and physicality on the wing.

Glory Johnson Key Contributor (1.05) 24.1 Medium (1.10) 7.3 5.1 1.4 2.0 36.50 Johnson carved out value through hustle, rebounding and defensive versatility, often shifting between frontcourt roles depending on the matchup. Her energy remained one of the club’s more dependable constants throughout the season.
Theresa Plaisance Key Contributor (1.05) 17.2 Medium (1.10) 6.0 4.4 1.5 1.1 30.49 Used as a stretch forward, Plaisance helped create driving lanes by pulling opposing bigs away from the basket. Analysts regularly viewed her perimeter shooting as an important tactical wrinkle for Dallas’ offence.
Kaela Davis Key Contributor (1.05) 19.2 Medium (1.10) 6.0 2.2 2.1 0.7 25.41 Davis handled a larger playmaking role than her scoring suggested, alternating between both guard spots as injuries reshaped the rotation. Coverage reflected a season spent searching for greater offensive consistency.
Azurá Stevens Bench (1.00) 16.0 Low (1.00) 4.8 3.6 0.6 1.7 21.40 Stevens flashed her length and mobility in limited appearances before being traded, continuing to show why scouts valued her long-term upside as a modern frontcourt defender. Independent reporting noted her rim protection remained her standout trait.
Imani McGee-Stafford Bench (1.00) 11.9 Low (1.00) 3.9 3.8 0.6 1.2 19.00 McGee-Stafford filled reserve centre minutes by protecting the paint and attacking the offensive glass. Contemporary coverage was limited, though observers regularly cited her size as useful depth in the frontcourt.
Megan Gustafson Bench (1.00) 9.5 Low (1.00) 2.9 2.5 0.3 0.4 12.20 Gustafson’s rookie campaign featured brief opportunities behind veteran post players. Independent reporting largely focused on her long-term development and efficient interior finishing rather than immediate production.
Kristine Anigwe Bench (1.00) 12.9 Low (1.00) 3.2 3.6 0.3 0.7 15.60 Anigwe’s physical rebounding translated quickly whenever she entered games, although her role remained limited. Contemporary coverage viewed her as an energetic developmental frontcourt piece.
Tayler Hill Bench (1.00) 12.3 Low (1.00) 3.3 1.3 0.8 0.3 11.40 Hill appeared only briefly after returning from injury, providing experienced guard depth whenever available. Independent reporting on her season was naturally limited because of the small sample of games.
Brooke McCarty-Williams Bench (1.00) 13.1 Low (1.00) 2.4 1.3 1.9 0.5 12.20 McCarty-Williams primarily served as a secondary ball handler, bringing pace and defensive effort off the bench. Contemporary reporting discussed her value more as a facilitator than a scorer.
Karlie Samuelson Bench (1.00) 12.0 Low (1.00) 1.5 0.5 0.5 1.1 7.20 Samuelson’s minutes centred on floor spacing and perimeter defence. Limited independent coverage was available because she remained outside the regular rotation for most of the year.
