It’s almost time!! The 2026 WNBA Commissioner’s cup begins in just under two weeks.
This year’s cup tips off with the Seattle Storm vs. the Dallas Wings (USA Network) and Mercury vs. Lynx (Peacock/NBCSN) on Monday, June 1st.
The championship game will be held on June 30, broadcast on Amazon Prime.
This is from the latest episode of Sue Bird’s “Bird’s Eye View” podcast.
Olivia explains why she needed the extra year, and how the offense that TCU runs led to what she’s currently doing on the Lynx.
Super interesting conversation between two smart basketball minds 🏀
She is already having quite a season. Looking confident, poised, and skillful!
Oh no 😂😂 She was not having it!
And poor Lexie 😅 “Only a man would let this slide”
She is a cutie-patooie ❤️ I cannot be convinced otherwise.
This clip is taken from the latest edition of the Fudd Around and Find Out podcast, featuring Steph.
The Dallas home crowd was great last night, and this was one of a few high points in a very exciting game.
All four quarters were electric, and Minnesota's tenacity down the stretch earned them a hard-fought win.
The two former teammates had a great time going back and forth and teasing/laughing with each other on Hot Ones Versus 😛
The full episode is up on Youtube now.
The Wings and Dream play tonight in Arlington at 8 PM ET, in what should be an intense but fun matchup between two prospective playoff teams.
The UConn teammates had a good time going back and forth, teasing and giggling with each other 😂
Here’s the link to the full episode on the First We Feast Youtube channel
The friendship and love between these two is beautiful. The little moment where they snuck a low five in mid-game reminds me of what I really like about the W 😀
Flau: 16 points, 6 rebounds, 3 steals, 1 assist, 1 block
Nees: 17 points, 16 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal
She’s baaack.. Great game for her, and she’s showing a different level of composure in the early games under Becky.
Vegas also appears to have a knack for getting the best out of players that other teams have discarded. Very curious to follow Chen’s path through 2026.
Now that stat line for a very first professional game is something special.
Her feel for the game is very unique, and it was electric to witness last night. Can’t wait to see more of her!
To be fair, she did try to get away first (in socks!) 😛
Paige gives her insight into what specifically went well in yesterday’s thrilling matchup, what she feels the new-look Wings could have done better, and how they’ll improve moving forward.

From USA Today:
“Whatever concerns folks may have had about an injury after she left the game twice to go to the locker room seem to be unfounded, as Clark made an appearance at a Morgan Wallen concert at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis Saturday night.
Wallen has a local celebrity walk him out at all of his live shows and Clark did the honors in Indy. The country music star was doing the second of two shows at Lucas Oil on his “Still the Problem” tour.”
NBC Sports will debut a new WNBA marketing spot on Saturday during the Kentucky Derby as it prepares to return to coverage of the league this season in Year 1 of a new media rights pact. Aces C A’ja Wilson, Liberty G Sabrina Ionescu and Wings G Paige Bueckers will headline the ad, which officially launches NBC Sports’ WNBA campaign.
The spot is set inside a faux NBCU office, with “SNL” cast member Chloe Fineman giving the three WNBA stars a tongue‑in‑cheek “first day of work” tour where they pass by pictures of famous NBC female stars like Mariska Hargitay, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Betty White. NBC SVP/Sports Marketing Lyndsay Signor and her team led the effort on the creative.

Per Chloe Peterson, both players are expected to make a return tomorrow against the Nigerian national team. Great news!
CC also appears to have shaken off the pain after tweaking her ankle knee on a landing space foul last game.
(Lexie Hull is still out for the time being)
The numbers are in, and they’re up quite a bit!
The Golden State Valkyries lead the way again this season, with a list-topping $850M valuation.
According to Kurt Badenhausen, the average valuation is up more than 300% from just two years ago.
Although Atlanta has the league’s lowest valuation at $280M (likely due in part to their small home arena), their worth has risen more than 400% during the same period.
Asking this half-seriously. But taking a look at the schedule, I couldn't help but notice the following:
Whoever is putting the schedule together is having a lot of fun this year 😂
Normally we do get intentional marquee matchups in the regular season, but this year even the preseason has its own share of tea. WNBA, we see you.
It’s the preseason, and the amount of content from this group that has already blessed our feeds is quite something 😂
Fresh off the dancing on the game sidelines, we have this scene at media day. It’s clearly going to be a joyful season, and we’re ready for it!
A’Ja spoke with Nekias Duncan before practice to give updates on how she’s feeling, the status of her arm, and what she’d like to improve on/add this season.
