The WNBA is back, and we have a trio of preseason games across Friday and Saturday, followed by a pair of games on Sunday, to kick things off.
Previously, preseason action was difficult to watch, but this year, the league has stepped up, making its games more accessible. You don’t need a subscription to watch WNBA preseason games on League Pass—it’s free!
Since everyone watches women’s sports and it’s free for all this weekend, here are three things to watch for during these games:
The Aces begin their chase for another ring with a new Jewell
The Las Vegas Aces fell short of their goal of three-peating last season, falling to the eventual champions, the New York Liberty, in the semifinals.
Now, they are back and still have A’ja Wilson at the helm, along with a new star guard in Jewell Loyd. On Friday, WNBA fans will get their first chance to watch these new-look Aces against the Dallas Wings.
Dallas might not be a title contender like Las Vegas, but they are also a team to watch. This will be Paige Bueckers’ WNBA preseason debut, and while it’s not regular season action, there will be plenty of intrigue to see how she looks during her first minutes of action.
Get ready for lots of hype and overreaction regardless of how it goes.
