The Indiana Fever announced Wednesday they have signed veteran guard Shatori Walker-Kimbrough to strengthen their backcourt depth.
Financial details of Walker-Kimbrough’s contract were not disclosed by the franchise.
“Shatori is a versatile guard who adds depth to our backcourt rotation,” said Fever chief operating officer and general manager Amber Cox. “She’s a proven veteran in our league who brings a championship mindset and experience, both on and off the court.”
The 30-year-old Walker-Kimbrough posted 1.7 points per game across 41 appearances (including one start) during last season with the Atlanta Dream.
“I’m looking forward to joining an amazing organization like the Fever. I’m excited to play alongside some of the most talented players in the league,” Walker-Kimbrough stated. “The success of the team last year not only speaks to the players but also Coach White and her staff, so I’m blessed to be a part of it.”
Washington selected Walker-Kimbrough as the sixth overall choice in the 2017 WNBA Draft. She was part of the Mystics’ championship squad in 2019. Throughout her professional career spanning 274 games (54 as a starter), she has posted averages of 5.6 points and 1.5 rebounds while playing for Washington, Phoenix Mercury, Connecticut Sun and Atlanta.
