Former Syracuse Orange women’s basketball player Brittney Sykes has verbally agreed to a multi-year deal to return to the WNBA’s Los Angeles Sparks, according to Winsidr.
Last season, Sykes started in 14 games and averaged 10.1 points and 2.6 rebounds per contest. She was traded to the Sparks after spending her first three WNBA seasons with the Atlanta Dream. In four pro seasons, the former Orange woman averaged 11.1 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.
When Sykes graduated from Syracuse, she ranked third in school history with 1,846 points, first in starts (137), and third in field goals made (670).
