It's Officially Time for WNBA Expansion - Zone Coverage
Currently, there are 12 total teams in the WNBA, which is celebrating its 25th year of operation. The WNBA debuted in 1997 with eight teams, eventuallyzonecoverage.com
I would go with a team in 23 or 24 snd then another in 26. With the Bay and Toronto being the leading contenders, followed by Nash/Memphis, Louisville, and Portland.
Miami is a terrible idea.
I’m down on Charlotte bc it failed once but maybe with some ex-SoCar players ….
Charlotte failed in part because of the owner Bob Johnson. Really wasn't invested in it, and gave up on the team a bit too early. I've stated before on this forum that if Michael Jordan were the owner back then, the Sting would still be in the WNBA. Plus Charlotte is an entirely different city than it was in 2006. City had about 600,000 people back then.... now its over 900,000. Metro area has gained probably close to 1 million people during the same time period.
