SLO | WNBA Finals Preview: A New Era Begin in the W!

On this week’s Shooting Lights Out, The Playmaker and Cole Johnson preview the 2026 WNBA Finals as the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries prepare to battle for the championship. With neither franchise entering as the defending champion, the league is guaranteed a new titleholder — and Golden State has a chance to complete a remarkable rise in just its second season. We’ll also discuss the Valkyries’ suffocating semifinal defense, Atlanta’s path, A’ja Wilson making history with her fifth MVP, and whether the WNBA did itself any favors by placing Game 1 directly against a loaded college football window. 🏀 Shooting Lights Out — Your Weekly Deep Shot into Hoops Culture 📺 The Playmakerz Network #ShootingLightsOut #NBA #WNBA Music by Shadow2Real
