2024 Fantasy Outlook
Howard was traded from the Liberty to the Wings before the 2023 season, leading to some questions regarding how she'd fit in alongside stars like Arike Ogunbowale, Satou Sabally and Teaira McCowan. However, Howard carved out a prominent role with her new team and played a career-high 33.1 minutes per game. She had some of the best results of her career, averaging 16.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.6 assists while making 39 appearances. The 32-year-old's shooting efficiency declined slightly last season, but her scoring mark was the second-highest of her career. Satou Sabally re-signed with the Wings during the offseason, but Howard has proven that she can generate substantial production. Howard has appeared in all but one game in each of the past two seasons, and fantasy managers should have few reservations about selecting her in the early rounds of drafts. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Howard joined the parade of players changing teams this offseason, being dealt from the Liberty to the Wings as part of a three-team trade. Howard joins a much more formidable unit in Dallas, featuring the likes of Teaira McCowan, Satou Sabally and Diamond DeShields, though DeShields will miss a chunk of the season due to a knee injury. Howard may not have the same free reign in Dallas, but she should claim a significant share of the usage coming off another impressive campaign in 2022 that saw her rank in the top 10 overall in points leagues and the top 15 on a per-game basis, doing most of her damage in the scoring column (15.1 points per game) and on the glass (7.3 rebounds), adding 2.3 blocks-plus-steals to her line on the defensive end.
Howard missed over half of the 2021 campaign due to a knee injury, but she still finished her first season with New York as the team's leading rebounder (7.2 per game) and second-leading scorer (16.2 per game). Now healthy, the 6-foot-3 center figures to be a force in the paint for the Liberty and should be one of the team's major producers throughout the 2022 season. The addition of Stefanie Dolson may cut into Howard's overall usage slightly, but it's possible the Liberty opt to play both bigs at the same time, which could work considering they both can stretch the floor.
