The WNBA semifinals are set. Here are the matchups, schedule and more to know

The 2026 WNBA postseason final four is officially set following an eventful opening round. The Golden State Valkyries, Las Vegas Aces, Atlanta Dream, and New York Liberty have all advanced to the next stage of the tournament.

Las Vegas secured its spot after defeating Indiana, while Golden State overcame a massive deficit against Dallas. Meanwhile, New York made history by sweeping Minnesota as an eighth seed, and Atlanta eliminated Washington to reach the semifinals for the first time in several years.

The upcoming semifinal round transitions from a best-of-three format to a best-of-five series. Golden State will square off against Las Vegas, and Atlanta will face New York, with the higher-seeded teams holding home-court advantage for the opening games.

The surviving franchises are now just a few victories away from capturing the league championship.
