The WNBA will launch its first-ever Rivals Week in August, with a highly anticipated prime-time matchup between Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever and Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky kicking things off.
Other notable games during the week will include a rematch of the WNBA Finals between New York and Minnesota, who will play each other twice. Another exciting showdown will feature projected top draft pick Paige Bueckers leading Dallas against Clark and the Fever. Additionally, Atlanta’s Brittney Griner will take on her former team, the Phoenix Mercury.
This special week is part of a new initiative for the league and will be supported by a new sponsor for the season.
