WNBA 2026



I love seeing the girls being able to kick back and have fun. Also, shout out to Raven for doing Azzi’s hair! 😁
 
Betts or Fam is the move here. All signs point to Dallas taking Fudd at #1, I think Minnesota chooses Betts at 2. People are high on Fam's upside but I don't think Cheryl wants to invest in a 3-4 year project when she could take Betts who will contribute immediately.
I'm not in the camp that thinks Fam is a project in this sense. I genuinely think she can contribute as soon as she joins a team.
 


I’m a little surprised, thought she would return to the Fever.

Yes, but with them making a move for Billings and resigning Dantas, space was getting limited. Not to mention dollars as the Fever need to be ready to pay Boston and Clark as they could see a bump in their salaries because of the new CBA triggers over the next couple years.
 
I am honestly not a big fan of Satou. Injured a lot. Doesn’t play defense. Shoots less than 40% from the field. New York probably got her for a discount, but she is probably still expensive. I am not sure how it will work out for New York.
And with Sandy gone you play Marine Johannes in the backcourt with Sabrina with Cloud coming off the bench.
I thought that was a bad pickup last year with Cloud being the Starting Pg. She never fit well with any of the Big 3. Her biggest asset was defense and with Stewie and Jones that shouldn't be your first priority in a guard.
It should be able to hit outside shots to open up the interior for Stewie. Jones, and now Sabally. Johannes, is a better fit in getting the ball to Sabrina where she can hit shots. Both Stewie and Sabrina had career worst 3 point Pct , last year with Cloud as point guard.

Did not see this coming.

Chicago is putting together a good roster. Compared to last year's roster, this is a huge upgrade. They had a lot of money to throw out there, I hope they have a good season. Their fans deserve it. Although I thought their Sheldon trade was bad.

Spending a lot of money and giving up a lot of future draft picks to do so. Time will tell if this was the right approach. Interested in seeing where Kia Nurse lands now as I don't think the Sky has room for her at this point.

That’s a good point, although I probably would’ve held onto Howard instead of trying to land Billings.
 
Pied piper Dallas at least had to overpay to get players. I am not sure how Chicago managed to convince all of these players to come.
Exactly! I like Shepard, but I don’t think she’s worth that much.

As for Chicago landing these players, I have no idea how they did it lol.

Is there a space left for Kia up in Toronto? Hometown-ish girl?

Based on who the Tempo has signed, I don't think so. They've got Mabrey, Sykes and Allemand along with several others on training camp contracts.

PS - nice touch with "hometown-ish" 😉.

That's gonna set her back on playing for every franchise in the league, if she goes back to a team she's already been with. Previously 5 teams in 5 seasons. She's nearly halfway there.

Interesting to see the WNBA complaining about not making any money, and now paying all these players really good $$$.

It's the talking track the NBA and WNBA uses when it comes to collective bargaining. When their books aren't public, it makes it easier for those who don't pay attention buy into the "claims".
