<p>The <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/chicago-sky" target="_blank" >Sky</a> signed Kate Martin to a development contract, the team announced Wednesday. Martin had a promising first two seasons in the WNBA but hasn't stuck on a roster this season. She was cut by the Valkyries at the beginning of the year and then signed to a development contract by the Sparks, who later waived her. </p><p>In her rookie season with the Aces she shot 35.5% from three-point range. She was then selected by the Valkyries in the 2025 expansion draft, where she became a key piece of their bench rotation. </p><p>The Sky have only four regular season games remaining, but the benefit of signing a development player now is they will retain her rights for next season.</p><p>They had one development spot open after <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/chicago-sky/2026/08/18/mercury-poach-forward-maddy-westbeld-from-sky" >forward Maddy Westebeld was poached</a> by the Mercury.</p><p></p><bsp-list-loadmore class="PageListH" data-module data-hide-authors="true" data-hide-categories="true" data-hide-dates="true" data-show-loadmore="true"
