Indiana Fever put their five-game winning streak to the test against Minnesota Lynx’s nine-game winning streak and fell short. While the Lynx are leading the league, winning five more games (25) than second-placed Las Vegas and having the fewest losses this season, analyst Ben Daniel thought the Fever had every chance to win the game if head coach Stephanie White came up with a better strategy.

Kelsey Plum. | NBAE via Getty Images The Los Angeles Sparks executed a blockbuster deal hours before the 2026 WNBA trade deadline, moving Kelsey Plum to the Phoenix Mercury in exchange for Monique Akoa Makani, a 2027 first-round pick and a 2028 second-rounder. The deal, clearly, doesn’t make LA better in the immediate future. Plum is averaging 23.9 points and 6.4 assists per game, while Akoa Makani is a second-year player averaging 9.4 points and 2.5 assists. View this post on Instagram But, ...

The Chicago Sky might have had a breakthrough Saturday against the Las Vegas Aces. The Sky have been one of the least clutch teams over the past two seasons. They lost all of their one-possession games and overtime games (an agonizing six in 2026) under coach Tyler Marsh entering Saturday’s contest, and it wasn’t just bad luck. They were committing a long list of time-and-score errors down the stretch, highlighted by blowing an 8-point lead in the final minute of regulation to the New York Liber
