Although they lost to the Atlanta Dream 92-81 in their home opener, the Los Angeles Sparks displayed strong qualities that could help them contend as the season continues.
Elzy, a former Tennessee player, had served several stints totaling eight years as a Kentucky assistant under Matthew Mitchell, most recently from 2016-20 as associate head coach.

Guard Jewell Loyd broke two scoring records to help Team Stewart defeat Team Wilson during the 2023 All-Star Game. Loyd scored 31 points and made 10 three-point shots, breaking both the record for most points and most three-pointers made in an All-Star Game.
The Los Angeles Sparks earned their second consecutive win after defeating the Atlanta Dream 85-78. Four Sparks starters scored in the double digits with the bench pouring in 20 points.
