What would it take?

A fair package each interested team would have to send for Dana Evans — assembled and priced by the same engine that grades trades, most valuable pieces first until the outgoing value matches hers. Open one in the machine to tweak it.

A starting point, not a prediction — each package is the fewest fair pieces by model value, and a real deal would flex around roster fit and both front offices. “Needs a filler” means the salaries don't yet fit under the cap without another piece.

Aging comps

The closest player-seasons in league history (1997–2025) to her current age, per-36 profile, and role — the careers her projection walks alongside.

  • Moriah Jefferson · 2018 · age 25
  • Kaela Davis · 2019 · age 25

Durability context: 40% of her 40 nearest comps had no qualified season two years on — projection ranges assume she's still playing.
