WNBA 2026 opening-day rosters - ESPN

The 2026 WNBA season is nearly here. The season tips off Friday with three games, followed by four more on Saturday, including a doubleheader on ABC between the Wings-Fever (1 p.m. ET) and Mercury-Aces (3:30 p.m. ET).

Before then, all 15 teams made final cuts Thursday to their rosters and signed players to development contracts. We're adding rosters (in alphabetical order) as teams release them.
