Las Vegas Aces forward NaLyssa Smith has now been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 WNBA season after suffering a non-contact left leg and knee injury. They did not disclose the exact medical diagnosis or whether surgery would be required. Smith was having a career-best season, starting all 38 games she appeared in. She averaged 11.7 points and 6.4 rebounds per game while leading the league in field goal percentage at 63.8%. Her absence is a major loss for the Aces as they prepare for the 2026 WNBA Playoffs. In Atlanta, the Dream has opted to waive guards Jaylyn Sherrod and Aaliyah Nye. The moves were made to free up a standard roster spot to officially sign two-time WNBA champion and six-time All-Star DeWanna Bonner for the remainder of the season. Sherrod had been playing under a developmental contract. The dual moves allowed the Dream to shuffle their depth charts as they gear up for the 2026 WNBA postseason. #basketball #womeninsport #WNBA #womensbasketball #womenssports
