I’m guessing there’s a DAL @ NYL game, but this is all the information I could find.

I wonder if they will be broadcast on League Pass.

It's years (and years and years) since any of them have been. |

When i checked the team page, I discovered that the May 2 game between the Sparks and Aces was not even listed as Pre season game. It is listed as a scrimmage and will be closed to the media as well as the public.

1st preseason game today: Atlanta Dream vs Minnesota Lynx May 1st: 3:00 PM ET
25 years in. Okay - expansion, roster upgrade - hopefully one day. But, we can at least grow the game by having the preseason matches on league pass or the team's website - something. Growth!!!

The official schedule doesn't list anything until May 5, so whatever's happening today is probably classed as a 'scrimmage'. |

50-49 ATL some time in the third, I’m guessing.
They have refs, staff, and maybe some media there. They’re keeping score. I’d say it looks more like a preseason game than a scrimmage. Depends on your definition of a scrimmage.

Interesting +/- for Minnesota. Fowles and Dantas were both -12 in 10.5 minutes while Achonwa was +14 in 17.5 minutes. I know that has a ton to do with the players you're on the court with, but presuming they played at least SOME of those minutes with the other starters is...interesting.

I wouldn't draw much of anything from any "scrimmage" or preseason game. Starters aren't playing starter minutes, not every player is there.

Despite being similar in size, they have wildly different games. Achonwa is a post player, Dantas is a tall wing. Achonwa doesn't have a three point shot. Dantas has taken 46% of her shots from beyond the arc since she returned to Minnesota. Achonwa's job is to fill in for Fowles. Dantas' job is to bomb away from the perimeter.

So it seems they are planning on using Jasmine Walker at the 3. That would make sense as to what their final 12 was projected to look like.
PG: Wheeler/Cooper
SG: Toliver/Wiese/Augustus
SF: Sykes/Walker
PF: N. Ogwumike/Anigwe/Vadeeva
C: C. Ogwumike/Zahui B. (or vice versa)
