Overall, Nami sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Yasuo. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This change could signal that Yasuo supports by providing protection for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Nami is played together with Yasuo on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Yasuo.
Additionally, when Nami plays with Yasuo on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage could indicate that Yasuo does a decent job of covering Nami during team fights.

Is Nami better when played alongside Yasuo?
There is no universally accepted best synergy for Nami that will 100% of the time be her top ally. Yet, Yasuo is a good companion for Nami. By playing on the same side as Nami, he increases their win rate by 1.5% to 50.6%. This proves that there is pretty good strategic relationship between Nami and Yasuo that results in them performing stronger together than alone.
Yasuo has a much greater difficulty compared to Nami. That means you should be careful when lining up Yasuo comrades to play with, as they will have to have a much higher level of skill to work well with you.
Playing cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
Conversely, by grouping Nami and Yasuo together, you will not be giving your other teammates much engage potential. We recommend you include other champs on your team that helps cover this relative hole in their capabilities.
Regardless of the skill of your Yasuo teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
