Tuesday's nationally televised WNBA doubleheader features two high-stakes matchups. The opening game is a Finals rematch between the defending champion New York Liberty and the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx, followed by a clash between the surging Atlanta Dream and the seven-game win-streak Las Vegas Aces.
The Liberty-Lynx game carries significant rivalry tension, with Minnesota's coach claiming the 2024 Finals were "stolen" from them due to officiating. The Lynx have won all three meetings this season, shooting exceptionally well from three-point range in their first two victories (48.4% and 47.6%) before using interior play to secure Saturday's comeback win. Key players Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier remain injured for both teams.
The nightcap features two of the league's strongest midseason turnarounds. Atlanta has won 8 of its last 10 games and boasts the league's second-best offensive rating and third-best defensive rating. They play a slow, three-point heavy style centered around Allisha Gray, who scored 24 points in their previous meeting with Vegas. However, Las Vegas dominated that July matchup and enters riding a seven-game win streak, with MVP candidate A'ja Wilson scoring 30+ points in three of her last four games.
Both games will be broadcast on NBA TV and WNBA League Pass for national audiences, with local broadcasts available in respective markets.
