With much fan anticipation for the professional debut of newcomers Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, the WNBA tips off its 40-game season on Tuesday.
The Liberty will try to take things one step further after going 32-8 in the regular season and losing to the Las Vegas Aces in the WNBA Finals last year.Let’s take a look at the two finalists from a season ago while exploring a third team that could outperform its win projection.
Given the overall improvement in talent around the league, the gap between the top and bottom teams isn’t as wide as it has been in recent years.Kelsey Plum of the Las Vegas Aces looks to pass against Jonquel Jones of the New York Liberty in the first quarter during Game Four of the 2023 WNBA Finals at Barclays Center on October 18, 2023 in New York City.The Aces run a top-notch organization led by general manager Natalie Williams and head coach Becky Hammon.
Las Vegas shrewdly snatched up Gustafson, who was on the Liberty’s roster last season, which could further weaken New York on the interior.It’s tough to find any weaknesses on the Aces roster after they led the league in offensive and defensive efficiency while boasting a +15.3 net rating.If anything, they have gotten even better this season, and we should expect more of the same coming off a 34-win performance last year.Nevertheless, Minnesota could be one of this season’s surprises.
