The WNBA released its full schedule for the 2020 season Monday, which includes 22 games for all 12 teams at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla. A new queen has been crowned!

Unique perspectives on the daily sports topics that matter most. Right at your fingertips. As per the Associated Press, the WNBA offered Brondello and Lange, along with their children Brody and Jayda, accommodation to live together. Lange is also Brondello's assistant for the Australian team. Sound familiar? If Portland wins, it is in the play-in against Memphis (with the Trail Blazers as the eighth seed), and Phoenix takes off for Cancun and the offseason.The Grizzlies and Suns winning means the San Antonio Spurs historic playoff streak ends at 22 seasons, they are now mathematically eliminated.Thursday’s games came with the promise of playoff-chase drama but ended up the kind of duds we see at the end of a typical regular season when one team has something to play for and the other is coasting and disinterested.The Grizzlies didn’t win because Rookie of the Year to be Morant put up a triple-double (12 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists).Rather it was a testament to the Memphis front office building out a solid, balanced roster around their young stars.

Olaf Lange is currently a first-year assistant for Chicago Sky. Enter Both Lillard and McCollum played every minute of the second half — and Portland might not have won if they didn’t.Brooklyn’s effort and scrappy style of play has caught teams off-guard all restart long, and it pushed Portland.

The first two rounds will be single-elimination playoff games.Portland is going on the West play-in games as the eighth seed — win one of two games against Memphis on Saturday or Sunday and the Trail Blazers will face the All because Portland held on for a 134-133 win against Brooklyn.The Portland win means the Phoenix Suns — the darlings of the bubble at 8-0 behind Monty Williams — very likely the winner of the “Coach of the Seeding Games” award — deserves credit for getting his team to take advantage of the extra games and practices to get better in a way that Sacramento, New Orleans, and other teams did not.Lillard finished with 42 points on the night, bringing him up to a 37.5 points per game average in the bubble.Brooklyn tried, they threw two guys and Lillard and blitzed trying to force the ball out of his hands and anyone else to beat them. 2 seeds getting byes to the semifinals.

The WNBA season has gotten off to an encouraging start in its Bradenton, Florida bubble. If the WNBA is forced to play in a bubble next season, a proper preseason and an expanded schedule may be needed to combat the current rash of injuries. The Lynx will try to improve on their 18-16 record from last season, which earned them a postseason spot as the No. All of them. The majority of the WNBA arrived at IMG Academy in Florida on Monday.
