Overview
- Season 2 opened in Miami with eight teams and a 54-player ecosystem after the league expanded its footprint and refined operations.
- The schedule now runs Friday through Monday with no back-to-backs, and games air on TNT, truTV and stream on HBO Max.
- Facilities were upgraded with 15,000 square feet of player-only space, a third practice court, a second weight room, dedicated trainers and recovery tools such as hyperbaric oxygen chambers.
- Roster design added spots and an on-site development pool, most players moved to multiyear deals through 2028, and an oversubscribed Series B led by Bessemer reportedly valued the league at $340 million.
- Chelsea Gray scored 35 in Rose BC’s 80–60 win, Paige Bueckers had 24 in Breeze BC’s 69–62 debut victory and called the format more physical than the WNBA, while co-founder Napheesa Collier will miss the season for ankle surgery as leadership stays open to future WNBA collaboration.
