In Athletes Unlimited, Sims carries significant weight. She is a veteran and the league’s standout player, leading nearly every historical statistical category, including ranking points, win points, stat points, and MVP points. Her consistency and dominance have made her a cornerstone of the league’s identity since its launch.

For Indiana Fever followers, her return to AU will be a chance to relive the energy and determination she showed in the WNBA this summer. For the league, it reinforces the importance of stars like Sims in connecting professional women’s basketball across different stages.
