Sentiment Analysis
Below-average depth signing. McDonald is a capable guard with college pedigree but has struggled with injuries and consistency at the WNBA level. Signing provides roster depth and potential upside, but the immediate unavailability due to injury significantly limits impact. Suitable as a depth/development move for a rebuilding team.
