Chennedy Carter’s WNBA Comeback: How she got a second chance with the Chicago Sky
Ойын-сауық
Per the Chicago Sky press release:
The Chicago Sky announced today the team has signed guard Chennedy Carter to a training camp contract.
Carter was the fourth overall pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft by Atlanta. She was named to the WNBA All-Rookie Team after averaging 17.4 points and 3.4 assists in 16 games (all starts) for the Dream. She averaged 14.2 points the following year in Atlanta before being acquired by Los Angeles in 2022. In 51 career games, including 29 starts, Carter averaged 12.7 points and 2.7 assists.

Looking back on this video now that the season is in full swing, she was horribly misused & abused by my Atlanta Dream, she is more than good enough to be a starter, some of these coaches don't know how to use her skillset. I'm glad there is another team where she can showcase!!
Very smart signing for Chicago. The question will always be locker room related. When Chennedy is the Queen Bee (HS, College, overseas) she is amazing. I really hope she can learn to become a team player, she is too talented not to be in the league. Huge upside and I really hope it works, I love watching her play. I remember Chennedy vs Arike, that was fun to watch. Although I have become less impressed with Arike, when her shot is off, instead of finding the hot hand (usually Satou), she just keeps shooting. I wish the best for these 2 talented women. Cam

I am with you. I wish they would stop heralding players just because they shoot a bunch of shots. If you score 40 points and shot 30% from the field; you did your opponent a favor.
Congratulations Clarter you going to be fine stay focus humble yourself Go Sky ❤️
Chennedy Carter Welcome to Chicago
Very excited and happy for Chennedy on getting another chance. She is a huge talent that should be in the WNBA.
I LOVE Chennedy. She is SO misunderstood.... Courtney Williams is a royal pain in the azz. She flat out said no newbie should come in and not pay their dues, which is tantamount to "I RUN THIS, BE STILL CARTER & SIT IN MY SHADOW". Anytime someone has an issue with CW, they end up getting traded. 3ppl she's had issues with (all Scorpios by the way) so Imma blame childish, always-wanna-be-in-the-spotlight, attention - seeking CW. Chennedy is actually a silent, confident introvert but you can't push her around, plain and simple. If ever there's an issue and CWs in it, IT'S LIKELY HER FAULT. GOOO CHENNEDY!!! WELCOME BACCCCCK!!!
Good to see Chennedy back! Really hope she's going to succeed. She's been balling out overseas.
Just curious. Do you think that Courtney Williams somehow got wind of the Sky’s interest in Carter and wanted no parts of potentially being her teammate again after what happened in Atlanta?

@MaseratiHolly That's not quite what happened. Courtney Williams instigated ish, as per her usual... and expected Carter (who was busy minding her business) to just accept being spoken to any kinda way. CW started yelling at Carter to be more engaged while on the bench. Carter is an introvert and doesn't walk around trying to get attention all the time like CW. CW doesn't sign Carter's check so teammate or not, she doesn't have the right to bark orders at her. CW stated rookies/ newbies gotta pay their dues. For some reason she thinks that means she's entitled to being disrespectful to newbies like Carter. Carter is "don't start no stuff, won't be no stuff" whereas Courtney stays looking for trouble, then throws a fit til players get transferred. She's talentled as a player, but absolute trash as a person. And thanks for being inspired by my comment LilBit2384. 🙄
Chennedy Carter definitely has the basketball skills (game) but not sure what went wrong with the teams that she played for?
My dream come true she’s back, Arike is always her rival in game , hope to see them both challenge again and this is the most excited news this week
Kennedy Carter was explosive with the Dream. A lot of the off the court dynamics such as issues with teammates were her undoing in Atlanta.

atlanta's problem is that everyone there is trying to prove that they are the breakout star... howard is a volume shooter... i'm a college coach and volume shooters sit right next to me on the bench... every possession the ball should go through parker or charles... but the perimeter players aren't going to allow that... atl did carter a favor by letting her go... atl is where good players go to have their careers die...
Nice pick up.... redemption is a good thing...
I hope Alexis Morris makes the league eventually 🙏🏾

This Should Be A Very Good Piece to the Sky if they keep her
I already knew she wasn’t going nowhere or Angel R because people don’t like how they doing things know since Angel got on their team and a lot of hate people be having so much to say about them both I love them both because they are my favorite team now 🩵🖤🩵🖤
I was just looking over their roster and 3 bodies need to go so stay tuned.
She supposed to have had an Arike type trajectory hope she get back 🅿️
I am happy for Carter and think she will make the team. I think the T spoon would keep her grounded.
The fact KAH and cMw walked away scares me. The organization appears to be in some serious rebuilding trouble. When fan favorite players like Kah and Court want out, something is wrong in the front office.
She's too good not to be in the league but how will she manage with Mabrey.

Mabrey shouldn’t be an issue for Carter. She’s got the large contract and probably isn’t going anywhere. Carter just needs to manage herself and compete hard with the other guards they’ve signed (Allen & DeShields).

Hope she takes this opportunity seriously, as this may be a pivotal life juncture with how she handles it.
Before anyone starts making predictions, lets first see if Reese, Cardoso, and Carter can co-exist and have chemistry?
😳🎉🎉🎉
I LOVE HER FIGHTING SPIRIT 💜 ❤️ 💓
Chennedy Carter is A Very Very Good USA 🇺🇸 basketball player at some point she just had to grow up She understand the games well
Drama seems to follow her wherever she goes. And that Courtney Williams was once on the Sky - she was teammates with Carter in Atlanta. Interesting
Chennedy Carter is a great basketball player….. it’s just the WNBA Does not like young cocky, talent, players coming into the league. And this is why the league suffers while women’s college basketball is thriving.
Carter needs not to be a bad person.
Angel Reece and Kennedy Carter don't mix!

She’s a disrespectful individual. She doesn’t deserve a spot anywhere.
not a fan of thug players who don't understand sportsmanship. chennedy has a huge history of aggression, suspensions, flagrants, etc - it's too bad cuz she's a good player.
Caitlin is the real deal and good luck to Carter making the team
