Atlanta Dream Chases No. 2 Seed in Tight WNBA Playoff Race

As of September 10th, 2025, the Atlanta Dream has temporarily taken over the No. 2 spot in the WNBA standings after extending their win streak to five games. However, the team's hold on that position may be short-lived.

The Las Vegas Aces currently hold the inside track for the No. 2 seed, entering Monday's games one game ahead of the Phoenix Mercury. The Aces are expected to beat the Chicago Sky on Tuesday, which would further solidify their position.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Storm can clinch the final playoff spot as early as Tuesday with a win over the Golden State Valkyries. The Storm could still achieve the No. 7 seed if the Indiana Fever lose out.

The rest of the playoff field appears to be set, with the Minnesota Lynx securing the No. 1 seed last week. The goal for the Aces, Dream, and Mercury is to avoid facing the Lynx, the only 30-win team in the WNBA, in the postseason.
