New year, new szn.
The 2025 WNBA season will be here before we know it, and based on these matchups, the level of competitiveness is going on another level. Speaking of matchups, teams across the W recently announced the official schedule in, arguably, the most creative way we’ve ever seen on social.
From cinematic movie scenes with Ellie to the Suspect trend, here’s a roundup of every announcement, and schedule, that was all over our feeds.
Oh, and here’s some key dates for you to remember. The official schedule can be found here.
April 14: WNBA Draft
April 27: Training Camp Begins
May 16: Regular Season Begins
Atlanta Dream
Despite immense cookout vibes brewing in the A, we know food isn’t the only thing cooking. Rhyne Howard, Tina Charles and the Atlanta Dream are definitely in the lab and they’re coming for more in ’25.
Chicago Sky
Suspect knows Kamilla and Angel will dominate together next season. With a new head coach and a full offseason together, expect the Sky to fly.
Connecticut Sun
With the forecast predicting sunny conditions in 2025, Connecticut fans have a reason to smile. One of the grittiest teams in the league are ready to run it back, and this time they think it’s their moment to shine.
Dallas Wings
Teaming up with THE Keith Lee for your announcement is next level. We absolutely need a Dallas food tour next starring him, Arike and, perhaps, the Wings’ future No. 1 pick…
Golden State Valkyries
What can we expect from the W’s newest team? Only time will tell, but definitely tune in to the expansion draft on December 6…
Indiana Fever
With back-to-back Rookies of the Year, Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston, and an entire squad, this Fever team is going to be as fun to watch as Pictionary with their mascots. Oh, and you already know we’re hyped about them facing off against the Sun at TD Garden.
Las Vegas Aces
The Aces have always been a fun and electric team to watch, and their social media team brought that same energy by making their own W-version of Key & Peele’s Obama Meet & Greet skit. We can’t wait to watch the U’animous MVP and her squad of All-Stars ball out this year.
Los Angeles Sparks
LA is home to some of the biggest record labels and musicians (that new Kendrick album goes crazy) and the Sparks perfectly captured that in their announcement, which was set at a record store. If they can bounce back from injuries and remain together, it’ll be music to their ears that they’re going to get after it next season.
Minnesota Lynx
Speaking of music, the Lynx’s announcement was for the culture. After having their best record in franchise history (30-10), this season will be about carrying that momentum into the new year.
New York Liberty
The Libs said, Oh we’re doing season announcements? Bet, let’s make a MOVIE.
After bringing their first-ever championship to the Mecca, all eyes will be on the Liberty to run it back and dominate next year. With a stacked roster, we know they’ll show out. No lies detected…
Phoenix Mercury
Remember when you’d go to take family portraits at the department store? Well, the Mercury brought back a timeless tradition and delivered these hilarious photos with Tasha, Kah and Sophie.
With looming uncertainty surrounding Diana Taurasi’s retirement, it’s unclear what the future will hold yet for next year’s roster, but still, remaining together will be key.
Seattle Storm
With a roster full of young talent that show out on the court and in the tunnel, the Storm are looking to make next season a movie. Get the popcorn ready…
Washington Mystics
It’s giving music video. The Mystics are ready to hold their own, and with talent like Ariel Atkins and Aaliyah Edwards, the District is bound to turn up on the hardwood next season.
