Paige Bueckers and her seventh-seeded Dallas squad open their postseason journey on the road against the second-seeded Golden State roster on Sunday, September 27. The opening matchup of this best-of-three series tips off at 9 p.m.
Eastern time with television coverage carried by USA Network and CNBC. Dallas enters the playoffs riding strong recent momentum after winning seven out of their previous eight regular-season contests despite dealing with roster injuries.
Their attack is fueled by standout performances from Jessica Shepard and Arike Ogunbowale alongside Bueckers, while Azzi Fudd and Alanna Smith have also missed time. Shepard has paced the league in triple-doubles with six and made history as the lone WNBA player to average at least 14 points, 11 rebounds, and five assists across a single season.
Meanwhile, the home side boasts the league's top defensive unit in defensive rating, points surrendered, and perimeter defense under the guidance of coach Natalie Nakase. Golden State also protects the basketball effectively by committing the fewest turnovers per contest at 11.5, supported by key contributors Gabby Williams, Veronica Burton, Kayla Thornton, and veteran reserve Tiffany Hayes.
The Bay Area team swept the regular-season series 3-0 against Dallas with an average winning margin of 12.3 points.
