Several WNBA stars rocked outstanding attire during the semifinal round of the postseason.
Statistically, Nneka Ogwumike was the right pick for this season's WNBA MVP. But don't overlook her fierce competitiveness and all the intangible things she brings to the Sparks.
No Elena Delle Donne? No problem. The Sky were bursting with offensive confidence and got boosts from Courtney Vandersloot and Jessica Breland, who played the best playoff games of their careers.
Phoenix and Atlanta already survived one single-elimination playoff game. Now they advance to the second round looking for upsets to keep their WNBA seasons alive.
With Sue Bird having one of her best seasons, and rookie Breanna Stewart and second-year player Jewell Loyd already at home in Seattle, the Storm won five of six games entering the postseason.
Defending champion Minnesota seeks to become the first team to repeat in over a decade. But before the Lynx and Sparks hit the court, four single-elimination games will determine their opponents.
