Los Angeles Sparks and New York Liberty have announced replacements for the waived Miller twins.

Los Angeles have signed guard Andrea Riley. From the team:

The 5’5″ guard played in eight games for the Phoenix Mercury this season, averaging 2.9 points, 1.6 assists and 1 rebound in 10 minutes per game. Prior to this season, Riley played for Tulsa in 2011 and the Sparks in 2010. For her career, she is averaging 4.6 points, 1.4 assists and 1 rebound in 13.3 minutes per contest.

New York Liberty have signed rookie guard/forward Katelan Redmon. From the team:

Redmon, a rookie out of Gonzaga, was drafted by the Liberty with the 36th selection in the third round of the 2012 WNBA Draft. Appearing in one preseason game with New York, she recorded 10 points on 5-6 shooting from the field, three rebounds and one assist in 16 minutes of play versus the Connecticut Sun on May 7. She was waived on May 27.

“We were impressed with Katelan during training camp and are happy to have the opportunity to bring her back to New York,” said Head Coach John Whisenant. “We know she will come in and do the things we ask of her, and her ability to score will definitely bring a needed burst of energy off the bench.”

Both are reportedly on 7 day contracts.
