Burton will join the club as a developmental player for the 2019/20 WNBL season.
The Ballarat-born guard just finished a season with the Melbourne Tigers in the NBL1 competition, where she averaged 9.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game as a starter.
She also represented Victoria Country as an under-16, under-18 and under-20 player.
Bendigo Spirit head coach Tracy York said Burton came to the Spirit with experience in the Australian junior system and previously as a DP in the WNBL.
"She brings size and versatility and we are excited for her to join us as a DP this season," she said.
Burton will join Kara Tessari, Shyla Heal, Carley Ernst, Abbey Wehrung, Alicia Froling, Tessa Lavey, Gabe Richards, Kelly Wilson, Isabella Stratford and Becca Tobin on the 2019/20 roster.
The 2019/20 WNBL fixture was released a fortnight ago with the Spirit to tip-off its season at home against the Melbourne Boomers at the Bendigo Stadium on Saturday, October 12.
