The WNBA's playoff field is now set.
The Dallas Wings picked up a 96-78 win over the Portland Fire on Tuesday night at the Moda Center, which officially locked up the eighth and final postseason spot this summer. That got the team back into the playoffs for the first time since 2023.
The loss also eliminated the Fire from the playoffs. The expansion team entered Tuesday night more than six games back from the Wings in the standings, however, so this was very likely coming sooner or later.
While the playoff field is now solidified, no seed has been locked up just yet. The Minnesota Lynx hold the best record in the league and are on pace to grab the No. 1 seed. They could have clinched that seed on Monday night, but fell to the Golden State Valkyries. The Valkyries are in second in the league standings.
As seeding plays out over the last several weeks of the regular season, here's are the eight teams who will have a shot at claiming the WNBA ******* le later this fall:
