Pili started the season with the Minnesota Lynx, who drafted her with the 8th overall pick last year. She was waived on July 12th before signing with the Sparks on a 7-day contract on August 3rd, reuniting with her college coach from Utah, current L.A. Sparks Coach Lynne Roberts. She went to USC from 2019-22 before transferring to Utah for her two last seasons in college.
Pili played a total of 36 games with the Lynx, averaging 2.2 points and 1.2 rebounds in just six minutes of play per game. WIth the Sparks, she's seen very little action; she's only gotten on the court on Aug. 9th against the Valkyries, scoring a point under three minutes of play.
But she'll be sticking with the Sparks for the rest of the 2025 campaign.
