The Atlanta Dream will play home games at State Farm Arena beginning with the 2027 season, the team announced. It’s a multiyear deal that’ll move the team’s home from Gateway Center Arena to the much larger and more central venue downtown.

Is anybody else just refreshing constantly to see when the WNBA Game 1 times are for each matchup? Wild that the first tipoff is a little over 48 hours away, we've known the four hosts teams for more than a day at this point, and they still have not announced the gametimes. Surely there was a plan?

With the Lynx’s win over the Fever tonight and the Mystics’ win over the Sky, Washington will be the No. 5 seed in the playoffs and face No. 4 Atlanta. Indiana will be the No. 6 seed and play either Golden State or Las Vegas

Remember, if the Fever win, they get the No. 5 seed and play the Dream. If the Fever lose and the Mystics lose, same thing. But if the Fever lose and the Mystics - up 52-34 at the half against the Sky - win, the Dream will host the Mystics. #WNBA I @theixsports.bsky.social

"And a three-game series terrifies every coach". Yeah, and we shouldn't be playing them anymore. They keep adding games, but they keep adding the wrong games. Enough expanding the regular season. Get us to best-of-5 in the first round, and if it costs a couple of regular season games, great. #WNBA

Ooh. Anyone who watched Italy in the World Cup saw Villa's talent, albeit a point guard who only had 5 assists in the entire tournament. Only 21, and some genuine potential. Also a reminder that built relationships matter. Atlanta drafted her, but renounced their rights. Now sign her anyway. #WNBA

The problem with the 'good for business' part is it's hard to parse how much she generated and how much she was just there for. And she still sold 16% of the league for what is now about the value of 1/5th of one franchise. #WNBA

We need more conversation about Rhyne Howard’s evolution into one of the best defenders in the #wnba. She is top 20 in every major statistical category except rebounds, and leading the league in 3 points makes. Only 58 turnovers all season even though she’s played the most minutes. DPOY behaviour.
