The first-overall pick in the 2008 WNBA Draft, Parker has spent the entirety of her career with the Sparks, claiming a championship and Finals MVP in 2016. Throughout the course of her storied career, Parker has averaged 16.9 points and 8.6 rebounds over 337 appearances.

At the conclusion of the season, the Sparks held the third seed in the WNBA playoffs, holding a record of 15-7 in the shortened WNBA season that took place at IMG Academy due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, but were ultimately eliminated in an upset defeat at the hands of the Connecticut Sun.
