Commissioner Cathy Engelbert has said the WNBA will have news on expansion later this season.
— her list of cities under consideration has fluctuated between 100, 20 and 10 and has been similarly opaque about the timing of expansion. But she seemingly created a firm timeline of “later this season” at the WNBA All-Star Game last month, and she has made it clear in other remarks that the league is looking to add two teams.
That makes the public visits she has made all the more noteworthy, starting in Portland in February and now in Denver. The WNBA also hosted a sold-out preseason game in May in Toronto, a city Engelbert has praised on several occasions. The Warriors, like the Oakland bidders, declined to comment for this story, but reiterated prior statements about a potential WNBA expansion team: Their interest in a team remains high, if the buy-in price and timing are right.in July that he believes San Francisco “would be a phenomenal place” for a WNBA team. But the team seemingly hasn’t communicated with its own city’s government about the WNBA.
