| ESPN will tip off its 16-game regular-season schedule of the 2017 WNBA season Saturday, May 13, at 5 p.m. ET when the defending champion Los Angeles Sparks — led by 2016 WNBA Finals MVP Candace Parker and reigning league MVP Nneka Ogwumike — host the Seattle Storm and 2016 Rookie of the Year Breanna Stewart. |

3/4 of the games have Los Angeles, Minnesota, or both.
Washington at Dallas is an interesting choice. ESPN rarely picks up games between teams that missed the playoffs the year before.
It's also unusual for the #1 pick to not have an ESPN game.

EDD/Diggins star power. Makes sense.

They haven't abandoned the "3 to see" yet and that's 2/3 of them.

Shattered Backboard reached out to the network to find out why the Stars didn’t make the cut and ESPN Communications Manager and Spokesperson Tara Chozet told us that there may be more games added to the schedule at a later date.
“It’s a collaborative effort between us and the WNBA to create the schedule of games,” Chozet told us. “As always, we are constantly reviewing the league storylines as the season progresses and can adjust our schedule accordingly. We will also offer a slate of ESPN3 games (to be announced at a later date) that will feature a variety of teams.” |

| More proof ESPN hates Atlanta - they always seem to have a Dream at Lynx game, I'm sure fully expecting a blowout.

Lots of games, even though NBA-TV is usually a premium channel ...
And all the games are on League Pass.
So if you want to watch the WNBA, you certainly can. The casual viewer can see a few games on ESPN, but again, it's not like people haven't been exposed to the league over the past 20 years. It would be nice if more games were more accessible but I don't think it would move the needle much.
And those who do care about women's basketball have plenty of chances to watch the best league in the world.

You'll be able to watch the Twitter games without any kind of subscription. Doubt you'll even need a Twitter account, but that's the most you might need.
WATCHMEWORK is still working for $2 off League Pass. |
