Although Vanloo came off the bench once again Thursday, she played 21 minutes, which was her highest total since joining the Sparks. The 32-year-old began the year with the Valkyries and averaged 4.6 points, 4.1 assists, 1.9 rebounds and 0.7 steals in 20.0 minutes per game over nine appearances (two starts), but she was let go upon her return from EuroBasket. She had a somewhat inconsistent role after joining the Sparks, averaging 2.2 points, 1.2 assists and 0.6 rebounds in 10.3 minutes per game over 22 appearances. Vanloo will be a reserved free agent this winter, and it's possible that she has a chance to explore other opportunities.
