ARLINGTON, Texas — Just like the New York Liberty the night before, the Dallas Wings had a chance Wednesday to knock out one of the top four seeds from the WNBA playoffs on their home court.

And just like the Chicago Sky against New York, the visiting Connecticut Sun didn't let that happen against Dallas. With the Sun's 73-58 victory over the Wings in Game 3 of their first-round series, the league's semifinal matchups are official, and the top four seeds will face off in best-of-five series starting Sunday.

No. 1 Las Vegas is meeting No. 4 Seattle (ESPN, 4 p.m. ET), and the other semifinal will be a repeat of last year, as No. 2 Chicago takes on No.

3 Connecticut (ESPN2, 8 p.m. ET). In 2021, the Sun had the WNBA's best record, the No. 1 seed and home-court advantage against the No.
