The WNBA opens its 2024 season Tuesday. Here are five storylines entering the league's 28th season of play.
There are plenty of storylines for the 2024 WNBA season, from the arrival of Caitlin Clark to the two-time defending champion Las Vegas Aces' bid for a three-peat. Here are five things to follow when regular-season play opens Tuesday. Clark, college basketball's all-time leading scorer, decided to forgo her final season of eligibility to enter the WNBA draft and was selected by Indiana with the top pick, setting off a frenzy of ticket sales for Fever games, home and road.
It was New York's fifth runner-up finish, but first since 2002. With MVP Breanna Stewart, who led the Seattle Storm to titles in 2020 and 2018, leading the Liberty to first place in the Eastern Conference last season at 32-8, they look to be the team best suited to stop the Aces. Particularly with an All-Star backcourt of Sabrina Ionescu and Courtney Vandersloot, who helped the Chicago Sky win the 2022 championship.
