Malonga is expected to make an immediate impact, especially after blowing her teammates away with dunk demonstrations in practice. Malonga put up 15.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 1.3 blocks last season with Lyon and also played in the 2024 Paris Olympics with her French national team. The young, dynamic center has been able to capture the league’s attention before getting a chance to hit the court, and it’s easy to see why. There’s no telling what level of talent Malonga will reveal next, but every WNBA fan will be seated and waiting to find out.
