Fantasy WNBA Week 11: Top Risers and Fallers

The WNBA features five multi-game slates in Week 11, including five matchups on both Tuesday and Sunday. With a busy week ahead, now is a great time to add value before the fantasy playoffs.

Top Fantasy WNBA Risers for Week 11

Aneesah Morrow, Connecticut Sun: Morrow has seen an increased role recently, which has boosted her fantasy value following inconsistent playing time earlier in the season. The rookie started her fourth consecutive game in Sunday's loss to the Liberty, during which she recorded 16 points (5-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes. The 22-year-old has reached double-digit points in just one of those starts, but her rebounding numbers and improved playing time have been beneficial. She has averaged 9.3 points and 9.5 rebounds in 22.5 minutes per game over her last four outings. The 6-foot-1 forward has been productive on the glass, grabbing at least seven rebounds in seven consecutive games. 

Dominique Malonga, Seattle Storm: The days of Malonga playing fewer than 10 minutes in a game are seemingly over. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft has logged double-digit minutes in six consecutive outings. During that span, she has averaged 8.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 18.3 minutes per game. Additionally, the 19-year-old center has averaged 22.0 minutes per game over her last three appearances, during which she has shot 48.3 percent from the field.

The 6-foot-1 forward has been productive on the glass, grabbing at least seven rebounds in seven consecutive games. 

Dominique Malonga, Seattle Storm: The days of Malonga playing fewer than 10 minutes in a game are seemingly over. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft has logged double-digit minutes in six consecutive outings. During that span, she has averaged 8.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 18.3 minutes per game. Additionally, the 19-year-old center has averaged 22.0 minutes per game over her last three appearances, during which she has shot 48.3 percent from the field. While Malonga may not score double-digit points in every single game, her ability to grab rebounds and block shots adds solid fantasy value. 

Naz Hillmon, Atlanta Dream: Hillmon has been on a tear recently, scoring double-digit points in four consecutive outings. During that span, the 25-year-old has averaged 16.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.3 blocks across 32.5 minutes per game. The 6-foot-2 forward has started two consecutive games due to Brittney Griner (neck) being out, though she has played a significant role off the bench since the end of May regardless. If Griner and Rhyne Howard (knee) return within the next week, Hillmon's fantasy value could take a hit. However, her recent success is extremely promising, even if she eventually returns to a bench role.

Key Fantasy WNBA Fallers to Avoid This Week

Lexie Hull, Indiana Fever: Hull spent the majority of the first half of the season in the starting lineup but hasn't drawn a start since July 15. The 25-year-old hasn't surpassed seven points in any of her last seven outings, including two scoreless performances. The fourth-year guard has also shot just 25.6 percent from the field during that span. Hull has played more than 20 minutes in only two of those seven games, losing playing time to Sophie Cunningham and Aari McDonald.

Shatori Walker-Kimbrough, Atlanta Dream: Walker-Kimbrough has seen a significant dip in playing time in the 2025 campaign. While she recently had three consecutive appearances with 20-plus minutes, she has since played fewer than 17 in each of her last four outings, including just six minutes in Sunday's win over the Mystics. She has averaged 0.8 points and 1.0 rebounds across 11.0 minutes per game while shooting just 1-for-5 from the field during that four-game span. 

Kierstan Bell, Las Vegas Aces: Bell entered the starting lineup in a win over Dallas on July 27, contributing a career-high 19 points. She has now started four consecutive games in place of Jewell Loyd, who has begun to find her rhythm off the bench. However, Bell has struggled in her three appearances since that breakout performance. During that span, the 25-year-old has shot just 16.7 percent from the field and totaled only nine points. Even if Bell remains in the starting five, it wouldn't be surprising to see Loyd reclaim some of those minutes while continuing to come off the bench.

Fantasy WNBA Player to Watch in Week 11

Emma Meesseman, New York Liberty: Meesseman arrived in New York on Wednesday and made her Liberty debut Sunday. She immediately joined the starting lineup in the win over Connecticut, posting 11 points (3-7 FG, 5-5 FT), three assists, two rebounds and one block across 17 minutes. The 32-year-old was solid in her debut, despite operating under a minutes restriction. Meesseman's role should continue to grow as she becomes more comfortable in the system, and her immediate inclusion in the starting five bodes well for her fantasy upside. It's unclear how long she'll see restricted minutes, but since Breanna Stewart (knee), Kennedy Burke (calf) and Nyara Sabally (knee) are all expected to miss at least Week 11, Meesseman's role will be one to monitor closely.
