Ranking the best rookies during NBA preseason ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

Paige Bueckers. | NBAE via Getty Images The Dallas Wings have struggled to find their footing in the WNBA. Since the franchise moved to Dallas in 2016, they’d had just one winning season. Now they’ve had two. The 2026 campaign ended with the Wings at 27 wins and the franchise’s fourth-best record. The other above .600 seasons occurred way back when they were known as the Detroit Shock. The Wings’ season still ended with a dud. They lost to the Golden State Valkyries in the opening round of th...

BOSTON — Boston Celtics guard Mike Conley wore the apparel of a player Wednesday night, but the sheet of paper folded in his hand made him look more like a coach. That’s because he was operating as one for the night. Throughout the Celtics’ 114-93 preseason win against the Charlotte Hornets, Conley could be seen pointing to teammates when it was time for them to check into the game. He said head coach Joe Mazzulla put him in charge of Boston’s substitutions for the contest. “Joe approached me...

At least four games remain in the 2026 WNBA season as the finals approach, but with all but two teams already pivoting to 2027, it’s time to look ahead to free agency.

Doesn’t mean he isn’t actively scoping out other properties in town. But for now, he hauls the garbage out to the stoop. He could probably finesse going to a grocery store for some eggs if he had to, as well. But he doesn’t. “I would just, uh, what are they called? Is it Postmates? You can do Postmates,” the 19-year-old said a...
