DiJonai Carrington is set to make her Chicago Sky debut on July 30 against the Connecticut Sun, the team that drafted her in 2021. After missing the first 27 games of the WNBA season due to a left foot injury, Carrington's return provides a critical boost for the Sky, who hold a 9-18 record and are seeking consistency. Although Carrington plans to play barring any pregame setbacks, she is expected to have a limited role as she adjusts back to game action.
