Below, I&#8217;ll highlight some of my favorite waiver-wire additions while also offering a few names to avoid.<\/p>\n<p>Top Fantasy WNBA Risers for Week 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/kiah-stokes-376\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kiah Stokes<\/a>, Golden State Valkyries <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/100GSV.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"GSV\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Stokes is set to return from a one-game absence due to a concussion, and she&#8217;ll have plenty of opportunities to produce in Week 14, as the Valkyries have three games. The veteran center has recorded at least 20 fantasy points in three of her last four outings, averaging 6.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.3 blocks and 2.0 assists across 26.3 minutes per contest during that span. She&#8217;s rostered in 11.3 percent of leagues.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/diamond-miller-853\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Diamond Miller<\/a>, Connecticut Sun <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/100CON.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"CON\"\/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/brittney-griner-394\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Brittney Griner<\/a> (knee) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/aaliyah-edwards-914\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Aaliyah Edwards<\/a> (ankle) are both dealing with injuries, but either way, Miller should continue playing an important role. The 25-year-old forward has finished with 18-plus fantasy points in five of her six outings since the All-Star break, during which she has averaged 11.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 combined steals-plus-blocks in 24.2 minutes per tilt. She&#8217;s rostered in only 6.3 percent of leagues, and the Sun have three games this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/leila-lacan-935\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Leila Lacan<\/a>, Connecticut Sun <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/100CON.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"CON\"\/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lacan hasn&#8217;t been at her best of late, though she&#8217;s still finished with at least 18 fantasy points in six of her last seven games. Over that stretch, she has averaged 9.0 points, 4.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.6 combined steals-plus-blocks across 26.4 minutes per showing. The second-year floor general is rostered in 25.5 percent of leagues.<\/p>\n<p>Key Fantasy WNBA Fallers to Avoid This Week<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/maddy-siegrist-856\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Maddy Siegrist<\/a>, Dallas Wings <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/100DAL.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"DAL\"\/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/jessica-shepard-586\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jessica Shepard<\/a> (ankle) is likely to return to action Monday, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/alanna-smith-577\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Alanna Smith<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/awak-kuier-733\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Awak Kuier<\/a> have been playing well recently, so Siegrist could see a dip in playing time moving forward. The 26-year-old forward has tallied 11 or fewer fantasy points in four of her last six games, during which she has averaged 5.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 12.2 minutes per outing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/michaela-onyenwere-739\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Michaela Onyenwere<\/a>, Washington Mystics <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/100WAS.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"WAS\"\/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Onyenwere has been an inconsistent contributor of late, supplying single-digit fantasy points in three of her last five appearances. The 27-year-old forward has shot just 28.6 percent from the field over that period, during which she has averaged 4.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.6 steals across 21.8 minutes per contest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/monique-billings-488\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Monique Billings<\/a>, Indiana Fever <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/100IND.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"IND\"\/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/makayla-timpson-1013\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Makayla Timpson<\/a> finding her groove in the starting lineup, Billings has come off the bench in four consecutive games. The veteran forward has closed with single-digit fantasy points in two of those four outings, averaging 5.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 0.8 assists across 14.8 minutes per contest in that stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Fantasy WNBA Player to Watch in Week 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/madina-okot-1056\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Madina Okot<\/a>, Atlanta Dream <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/100ATL.png\" class=\"article__logo\" alt=\"ATL\"\/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/player\/brionna-jones-280\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Brionna Jones<\/a> (leg) is without a timetable for a return, so Okot is worth keeping an eye on. The rookie center dropped 22 fantasy points across 18 minutes in Sunday&#8217;s loss to the Fever. She&#8217;s averaging 12.9 points, 7.1 rebounds and 0.7 blocks in games when she&#8217;s logged at least 16 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Those looking for up-to-the-minute fantasy WNBA news can check out RotoWire&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/injury-report.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">WNBA Injury Report<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotowire.com\/wnba\/lineups.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">WNBA Lineups<\/a>.
