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.

Super annoying. Especially when there are two East Coast teams playing in one semifinal and the other semifinal will be two non-East Coast teams. It should be easy to set tentative times.

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

That’s back-to-back 30-win seasons for the Dream. They beat the Liberty 83-65, and lock up home court advantage + No. 4 seed. Atlanta also closes season on 5-game win streak.

"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

I was so frustrated when I saw that the WNBA wasn't included in the conversation around this initiative. It sends the message that these men's leagues don't care about female athletes being harassed on the Internet.

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

Every player from the Atlanta Dream who went to the FIBA World Cup came back with something. Sika Koné and Izzy Borlase each got a Player of the Game and Rhyne Howard and Angel Reese came back with gold medals. May it foreshadow great things for the post season. #wnba

There is very little 'happy with silver, knew this was a longshot anyway' from France. They look disappointed, and a little pissed. Different from what we've often seen from teams losing to the US in past finals. #FIBAWWC

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

I am still a major supporter of the proposal that fan bases should stand until the OPPOSING team scores. Get behind the defense! Get LOUDER as the scoreless streak continues, not awkward-er until you embarrassingly have to sit down in the timeout break.

@itsmeghanlhall.bsky.social @michaelwaterloo.bsky.social Are y'all surprised that Sherrod is the player who is losing a roster spot, as opposed to SWK or Koné? I'm not surprised that the Dream want to keep Nye around, but I am a little surprised that they're holding on to Shatori and Sika.
