Our last award before we get into the All-WNBA teams, Executive of the Year goes to Dan Padover of the Atlanta Dream! #WNBA

9/48 #Unrivaled One of the #WNBA's most improved, welcome back Azurá Stevens!

8/48 #Unrivaled Another returnee, welcome back Lexie Hull!

7/48 #Unrivaled Could you have guessed this one?? Breanna Stewart has arrived!

Hadn't seen this before, but this was Stewie's reaction to the suggestion of firing Brondello following the Liberty's first round exit. #WNBA www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8SbvWYd/

🚨 COACHING NEWS 🚨 In a surprising release from the NY Liberty, the team has decided to move on from Sandy Brondello. Can't say we saw this coming just a year after a championship, but maybe it was a mutual move? Where do we think she ends up? #WNBA

With all the announcements about #Unrivaled today, I was thinking... Were they dropping hints for us??? #WNBA www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8Sb8uXD/

Finally watching the Aces Fever game from yesterday. I'm very impressed by Becky putting in Meg in the first quarter. They needed more defense and Meg has been so effective thus far. #wnba

6/48 #Unrivaled Another newbie, Wheels up! welcome Erica Wheeler!

Some #WNBA coaching news: Per Annie Costabile, the Dallas Wings and Chicago Sky will be retaining their coaching staff ahead of the 2026 season.

5/48 #Unrivaled There she is! Saniya Rivers!

Love to see Saniya near the top of this list. Great that she already has well deserved respect around the league! #WNBA

Shoutout to Nneka Ogwumike for winning the Kim Perrot Sportsmanship Award #WNBA #WNBASky

4/48 #Unrivaled Our first new entry, hello Paige Bueckers!

3/48 #Unrivaled Another Mercury star, Satou Sabally arrives!

2/48 #Unrivaled Rickea Jackson is here!

1/48 #Unrivaled Welcome, Alyssa Thomas!

Per Jenna Lemoncelli, #Unrivaled player reveals will begin TODAY AT NOON on their socials. 6 players will be announced daily, one player every hour (12pm - 6pm), up until October 1st when we will know all 48. The 6 player dev pool will be coming at a later date! Lock in! #WNBA

Cheryl cleaned up the points in the paint..Mercury got two points in the paint in the 4th quarter…

Courtney Williams was a star tonight (23/8/7 & 5 Steals), but one of the unsung heroes of this game will be the 8 mins of play by Maria Kliundikova, who's size definitely made a difference down the stretch. She was a plus 14 in her time on court! #WNBA

Dude Jess Shepherd should've dunked it

Yeah the Aces are going to struggleeeeee guarding her!

That’s not just sad, it’s infuriating! Women deserve better pay, better investment, better respect. Period. 💜 #WNBA #WNBASky

WILD STAT!

A'ja has won the MVP 50% of the seasons she's played in the league 🤯

A'ja Wilson has officially won her FOURTH MVP! The new GOAT? #wnba

After an excellent season in Atlanta, Naz Hillmon has been named Sixth Player of the Year. Just some insane growth to her game this year. A very deserving recipient for this year's award! #WNBA

Of the eight players who saw meaningful action for the Mercury tonight, six were new to the team this season. This was one of the great roster rebuilds in WNBA history.

Alyssa Thomas with her 5th career playoff triple double. She's very good at her job!!! #WNBA

DeWanna Bonner is now the all-time leader in playoff rebounds, passing Candace Parker, with 611 in total! #WNBA

This is the biggest mess of a game I've ever seen #wnba

That 3 from Satou was huge, but the response from Sabrina? Even bigger. #WNBA

AT is locked in and Phoenix is on a mission to avoid losing twice at home. They lead 22-15 after the first quarter. #WNBA

That 3 by Stewie made me go 👀 Knee's looking alright to start here. #WNBA

Indiana becomes the first lower seed to win a first-round series since the WNBA went back to series in 2022.

Insane putback while surrounded by Storm players, that Jackie Young bucket was crazy. Aces take the lead and hold on, winning 74-73. They've booked themselves a series against the Fever, who remain hungry. Gonna be an interesting series to get into! #WNBA

Erica Wheeler, certified dawg. #WNBA

Skylar 🫢 #WNBA

My one complaint with the refs is that they are refusing to call a jump ball when players are fighting on the ground. They are going to get hurt!! #wnba

Kelsey Mitchell has been a powerhouse tonight for Indy. She showed her perfect balance of finishing and outside shooting, and given how consistently ATL was able to score, Indy has really needed those 3s. #WNBA

I feel like this is the best Jordin Canada has looked in a minute. Great first half for her, 13 pts on 6/9 shooting, getting to the hoop with ease! ATL up 7 at half. #WNBA

Need that clip of BG whispering "Thank you!" After the refs switched the call on that out of bounds ball. So good! #WNBA

Early appearance for Makayla Timpson for Indy. Between her and Paopao, the rookies are extremely relevant right now. #WNBA

Extremely active game thus far in Atlanta. Both teams getting out running and finishing well at the cup. Curious to see how long this pace can continue. #WNBA

She'll make an excellent addition to this upcoming #Unrivaled season. Nice little year for GSV but excited to see what range she has in 3x3. #WNBA

As we approach the start for game 3 of Atlanta vs Indy, why not check out the pod we literally just dropped about Round 1 thus far?? Consider it the appetizer for tonight's main course of #WNBA action! open.spotify.com/episode/2DI1...

Also receiving votes: Gabby Williams 9 Alyssa Thomas 3 Napheesa Collier 2 #WNBA

WHAT A TWIST! After a split vote of 29 and 29, Alanna Smith and A'ja Wilson have been named Co-Defensive Players of the Year! #WNBA

I SAID, THEY GONE! #reebok #angel1 #skytown #wnba

The Golden State Valkyries made HISTORY 💜🖤 I’ve truly enjoyed watching them all season ! 🔥 #WNBA #WNBASky
