STWF Sports| ARLINGTON, Texas | April 14, 2026 — The Dallas Wings continued their aggressive offseason overhaul Tuesday, announcing the signing of veteran forward Alysha Clark, one of the league’s most respected defenders and a proven championship contributor.
Clark, entering her 13th WNBA season, brings a wealth of experience and versatility to a Dallas roster that has prioritized veteran leadership throughout the offseason. The 5-foot-11 forward has appeared in over 400 career games, averaging 6.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists while shooting an efficient 47.7 percent from the field.
Her arrival marks another key addition for a Wings team intent on building a balanced roster capable of competing at a high level in 2026.
Alysha Clark: A Proven Leader on the Court
“We are excited about the signing of Alysha Clark,” said Executive Vice President and General Manager Curt Miller. “Our goal during this offseason was adding additional veteran leadership to our locker room. AC is a respected veteran in this league and brings versatility to our roster. She is a three-time champion and a fierce competitor.”
Clark’s résumé is defined by winning. She is a three-time WNBA champion, capturing titles with the Seattle Storm in 2018 and 2020, and with the Las Vegas Aces in 2023. Her ability to contribute in multiple roles — as a defender, floor spacer, and high-IQ veteran — has made her a key piece on championship-caliber teams.
In addition to her titles, Clark has earned WNBA Sixth Player of the Year honors (2023) and multiple All-Defensive Team selections, including a First Team nod in 2020. Her defensive versatility allows her to guard multiple positions, a trait that aligns with Dallas’ emphasis on flexibility and matchup adaptability.
Clark’s efficiency metrics further underscore her impact. She ranks among the top players in league history in both effective field goal percentage and true shooting percentage, reflecting her ability to maximize scoring opportunities without disrupting offensive flow. She is also the only player in WNBA history to surpass 2,700 points, 1,400 rebounds, 600 assists, and 350 three-pointers while maintaining at least a 47 percent field goal percentage — a testament to her all-around consistency.
The 2025 season saw Clark split time between Seattle and the Washington Mystics following a midseason trade. Despite shifting roles, she remained a reliable contributor, providing steady minutes and defensive intensity.
Beyond the WNBA, Clark has built an extensive international résumé. She has competed professionally across Europe, including stints in France, Turkey, Poland, and Israel, earning multiple championships and individual honors along the way. Most recently, she participated in Athletes Unlimited, helping lead Team Eclipse to the 2026 championship — further demonstrating her continued competitiveness and leadership.
Clark’s basketball journey began at the collegiate level, where she established herself as one of the most prolific scorers in NCAA history. After starting her career at Belmont, she transferred to Middle Tennessee, where she led the nation in scoring in consecutive seasons and earned All-America recognition.
For Dallas, the signing of Clark represents more than just adding a veteran presence. It reflects a deliberate effort to surround the team’s emerging core with experienced players who understand what it takes to win at the highest level. Her defensive instincts, leadership, and championship experience provide a stabilizing influence for a roster that continues to evolve.
As the Wings prepare for training camp, Clark is expected to play a key role both on and off the court. Whether contributing in a starting role or as a versatile option off the bench, her ability to impact the game in multiple ways gives Dallas added flexibility.
With a mix of youth, talent, and now proven championship experience, the Wings are positioning themselves for a competitive 2026 season. The addition of Alysha Clark signals that Dallas is not only building for the future — it is aiming to win now.
