After a week of intense games, including one of the most watched WNBA matchups ever, Week 7 sees the league’s power dynamics in turmoil. Some teams have found new life with the return of key players (welcome back, Chelsea Gray), while others, like the Sparks and Dream, are plummeting in the standings.
Napheesa Collier and the Minnesota Lynx faced off against the New York Liberty in the Commissioner’s Cup Championship, securing an additional $500,000 to be shared among the team. The Liberty continued their regular season success, easily defeating the injury-ridden Sparks and Dream. Meanwhile, A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces are making a strong push to the top of the standings, driven by Wilson’s dominant performances.
