A tweet from the WNBA’s social media account regarding a potential new expansion team has generated a lot of excitement among basketball fans.
Recently, the WNBA’s primary social media account posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), asking, “You know what’s better than 14 teams?” without providing a definitive answer. This post was also shared on the league’s Instagram story.
Speculation suggests that the tweet may be alluding to rumors about a 15th team in Portland, although the WNBA has not confirmed this yet. Following this post, the league’s account returned to sharing regular content like schedules, reminders for voter registration, and playoff details as if nothing extraordinary had occurred.
