Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers has enjoyed a historic rookie season.

There were […]

The previous weekend for the Phoenix Mercury was a rough one, especially for Satou Sabally. She only played one half of basketball on Friday, as head coach Nate Tibbetts benched her.

The deal, made before the […]

Someone get a thermometer because the Indiana Fever are hot. They have now won five straight games, the longest active streak in the WNBA, after beating the Seattle Storm, 78-74, on Sunday.

The 2025 WNBA trade deadline is fast approaching on August 7 at 3 p.m. ET, and outside of the Dallas Wings trading DiJonai Carrington to the Minnesota Lynx in a blockbuster deal, teams around the league have so far been a bit stingy with their possible trade assets.

The Aces have stayed committed to […]

It will be fair to say that the Chicago Sky are currently embroiled in a season far different from what was expected. They are 12th in the WNBA standings with a 7-21 record and look a fair way away from even competing for the playoffs. And things only seem to be getting worse, so much […]

With the August 7 WNBA trade deadline fast approaching, Dallas Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale is the most high-profile name that might move — at least that we know of.

A 2-3 record on the East Coast road trip might not sound too horrific. But for the Phoenix Mercury, it felt like everything that could’ve gone wrong did.

For a couple hours on Sunday, everything was right in the New York Liberty’s world.

Meesseman wasn’t the story of the game — that […]
