Sources: Parker headed to Chicago, McBride to Minnesota

WNBA free agents can't officially sign until Monday, but Candace Parker is leaving Los Angeles for Chicago after playing the first 13 years of her professional career with the Sparks, according to a person familiar with the decision. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday because no official announcement is allowed until Feb. 1.

Kayla McBride told WSlam! that she would be joining the Lynx once free agents can officially sign deals Monday. A different person familiar with the situation confirmed to the AP that an agreement was in place. That person spoke on condition of anonymity because no announcement is permitted until Feb. 1.

There could be a lot of movement in the WNBA this offseason with many big- name unrestricted free agents, including Chelsea Gray, Alysha Clark, Amanda Zahui B., Betnijah Laney, Cheyenne Parker and Jasmine Thomas. Nearly 75% of the players on the Sparks' roster are free agents.

Two players who are free agents but won't be moving are Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi. The alltime assist leader and points leader will be staying in Seattle and Phoenix, respectively.

LYNX: The Lynx are signing Natalie Achonwa and Aerial Powers. The people spoke to the AP on Thursday on condition of anonymity because no official announcement is allowed until Feb. 1. Achonwa has played her entire WNBA career in Indiana and Powers played six games for Washington due to a hamstring injury.
