Sunday will feature games from ten WNBA teams, starting with the Washington Mystics hosting the Minnesota Lynx at 3 p.m. ET on ESPN3.
At 4 p.m. ET, the Indiana Fever will play against the Atlanta Dream on ESPN3, while the New York Liberty will face the Las Vegas Aces on ESPN. Following these games, the Chicago Sky will take on the Dallas Wings at 6 p.m. ET, and the Los Angeles Sparks will play against the Connecticut Sun at 9 p.m. ET. The last two matchups will be available on League Pass.
Can the Liberty claim the top spot?
The game between the Liberty and Aces is a significant test for New York, who are the top seed but face the two-time defending champions.
The Aces are on a winning streak, with victories including an important one against the Sun. A win against the Liberty could solidify their position as the team to beat in the league.
The Liberty have won their previous two matchups against the Aces this season. A victory in this game would secure a season sweep and boost the Liberty’s confidence in their ability to compete with the Aces.
Regardless of the outcome, fans can expect an exciting game with star players on both sides.
Remaining Games on Sunday
While Liberty vs. Aces is the standout game, all matchups on Sunday have interesting storylines.
The Lynx are expected to win against the Mystics, who are fighting for the final playoff spot.
The Fever have been performing well lately, but they face a tough challenge against the Dream, who are also contending for the final playoff spot.
The Sky, without Angel Reese, are in a challenging position and need to win against the Wings to stay in playoff contention. The Sun are favorites against the Sparks, who are unlikely to cause an upset.
