In the past decade, women’s basketball has become easier to find and watch. WNBA matches used to be broadcast sporadically, on obscure channels and at random times of the day. In 2015 ESPN televised only 11 games in the season. “You had to guess when it would be on,” remembers David Berri of Southern Utah University.

After a long but fascinating winter, spring has arrived, and with it a new WNBA season. The 2025 campaign, which features a record 44 regular season games per team, will begin Friday. From there, it will be a five-month sprint to crown a new champion.

The WNBA has experienced exponential growth over the last year raising both viewership and ticket pricing. We talked to OG fans about the changes.

Wilson (+225) is second in odds to repeat as MVP behind Caitlyn Clark (+220), while Wilson is the favorite for Defensive Player of the Year (+130) ahead of Collier (+320), then there is a wide gap between the competition.

The Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) today launched “No Space for Hate,” a multi-dimensional platform designed to combat hate and promote respect across all WNBA spaces — from online discourse to in-arena behavior.

Former UConn star and No. 1 overall draft pick Paige Bueckers will be making her WNBA debut in Dallas against the Minnesota Lynx, a team that made it to the 2024 WNBA Finals and is expected to be dangerous again this year. The game is set for Friday at 7:30 p.m. ET.

From MVP picks to future stars, the UConn Huskies' impact is felt at every level of the WNBA, with former stars dominating the WNBA GM Survey.

The WNBA released its poll of general managers on Thursday, and there is a strong consensus that she will do just that. When asked to pick this year's Rookie of the Year, a whopping 73% went with Bueckers. No. 2 pick Dominique Malonga of the Storm was second in the poll.

Breanna Stewart will start her ninth WNBA season in a few days. The New York Liberty All-Star and WNBA champ has been around the league long enough to watch her peers fight for visibility. She's seen only a small uptick in player salaries over the years amid the WNBA's meteoric rise in popularity.
