What happened: The 2026 WNBA Commissioner's Cup group play concludes Wednesday with four games scheduled across the league. The slate features a cross-conference matchup between the Washington Mystics and Connecticut Sun, along with three late-night games with major postseason implications.
Why it matters: While the New York Liberty have already secured their spot in the final, the Western Conference representative remains undecided heading into the finale. The Mystics aim to recover from an 86-64 loss to the Liberty, while the Sun look to snap a five-game losing streak and build momentum for the second half of the season.
By the numbers: Washington enters the night as a 2.5-point favorite with the 5. The Sun (3-14) struggle with a league-worst -10.4 point differential, while the Mystics (6-8) rank eighth in scoring at 80.4 points per game.
What to watch: The winner of the Western Conference group will face the Liberty in the Commissioner's Cup Championship on June 30.
