Eight teams have officially punched their ticket to the playoffs, but get this: only half of them actually know their final seed. Tonight is the last day, and the stakes could not be higher for four squads still battling for position.
Locked In, Ready to Roll
Even with all the drama, a few teams are chilling. The Minnesota Lynx locked up that coveted No. 1 seed, so they are set. The Atlanta Dream nailed down the No. 4 seed, the Dallas Wings snagged the No. 7, and the New York Liberty are holding firm at No. 8. With the Lynx and Liberty both locked, we already know one first-round matchup: it is going to be Lynx vs. Liberty. At least one part of this playoff bracket puzzle is already solved!
The Battle for Better Brackets
Now, for the teams still on the playoff roller coaster, Thursday is everything. The Golden State Valkyries are currently at the No. 2 seed, the Las Vegas Aces are sitting at No. 3, the Indiana Fever are at No. 5, and the Washington Mystics are holding the No. 6. Every single one of these teams could move up or down depending on what happens tonight. The biggest questions revolve around those clinch scenarios for the No. 2 and No. 5 seeds. Those are the ones to watch, the ones that will shape the bracket in a huge way. We are following every update from the Valkyries, Aces, Fever, and Mystics games because these results are going to be wild.
