What happened: The Chicago Sky named Azurá Stevens their Player of the Week. The recognition follows a stretch that included a 16-point first half against Seattle and a 20-point performance in a 95-90 loss to the Storm on July 15.

Why it matters: The award marks continued recognition for Stevens as Chicago works through a 3-6 start to the season, riding a two-game winning streak that includes a 96-82 win over the LA Sparks. Her scoring has been a consistent factor for the Sky, following the same Azurá Stevens who climbed into the Sky's all-time top 10 blocks list earlier this season.

By the numbers: Chicago is 3-6 this season, scoring 83.6 points per game while allowing 91.0. The Sky's biggest win of the year came against the Sparks, 96-82, on July 18.

What to watch: The Sky look to extend their winning streak in their next outing.
