Chantel Osahor Traded to Lynx; Sky Acquire Keisha Hampton

Alec NathanApr 14, 2017

The Minnesota Lynx acquired forward Chantel Osahor from the Chicago Sky on Friday in exchange for guard Keisha Hampton, the team announced on Twitter.

Osahor, a product of the University of Washington, was selected 21st overall by the Sky during Thursday night's draft.

Osahor will now join a Lynx team that is primed for even more improvement on the glass a year after they ranked third overall in total rebounds per game (35.8) and sixth in offensive boards a night (9.7).

During her 2016-17 season with the Huskies, Osahor led all NCAA players in rebounding with 15.3 boards per night. To put that number in perspective, runner-up G'Mrice Davis of Fordham averaged 12.8. Furthermore, Osahor hauled in 519 total rebounds—83 clear of Davis.

Hampton, meanwhile, will hope to carve out a steadier role with the Sky after she was relegated to playing 6.8 minutes a night last season. A former second-round pick, Hampton averaged 2.6 points, 0.4 rebounds and 0.4 assists while shooting 33.3 percent from the field and from three during her first WNBA season.
