2025 WNBA Commissioner's Cup: Full guide to schedule, format, how to watch, and prize details
WNBA Commissioner's Cup 2025/ Image: WNBA The 2025 WNBA season is already in full swing, and with it comes one of the league's most exciting in-season events, the Commissioner's Cup, now returning for its fifth consecutive year. The competition brings added stakes to early-season matchups, featuring a blend of high-intensity basketball, conference rivalries, and a substantial prize pool. — WNBA (@WNBA) What is the Commissioner's Cup? The Commissioner's Cup, presented by Coinbase, is an in-season tournament that runs within the WNBA regular season. Its structure is designed to amplify early-season competition by turning select intraconference games into Cup-qualifying matchups. These games not only count toward the Commissioner's Cup standings but also toward each team's official WNBA record. 36 total games will be played across the Cup window. The tournament spans Sunday, June 1 to Tuesday, June 17, 2025. Each team plays only intraconference opponents during Cup play. Eastern Conference teams (6 in total) each play 5 games. Western Conference teams (7 in total) each play 6 games. Game locations are pre-balanced: Eastern teams will play either three games at home and two away, or two at home and three away. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Western teams will each play three home games and three away games. The two teams with the best Commissioner's Cup records in each conference will meet in the Championship Game for the title, prize money, and bragging rights. Prize pool & crypto bonus At the heart of the Commissioner's Cup is a $500,000 prize pool, a significant incentive for players and teams. The WNBA has continued its partnership with Coinbase, which adds a cryptocurrency component to the mix: Coinbase will contribute an additional $120,000 in cryptocurrency to the pool. This includes a guaranteed $5,000 in crypto for each player participating in the championship game. These earnings are on top of any contractual salaries and bonuses players may already receive, and they underscore the league's push to reward in-season performance meaningfully. Championship game details The 2025 Commissioner's Cup Championship Game will be held on: Date: Tuesday, July 1, 2025 Host: The team with the best winning percentage in Cup play Stakes: A combined $500,000 cash and $120,000 in cryptocurrency The game serves as the final showdown between the top team from the Eastern Conference and the top team from the Western Conference, based solely on their performance during the Commissioner's Cup schedule (not the overall league standings). Recap: What happened last year? In 2024, the Minnesota Lynx emerged as the Commissioner's Cup champions, defeating the New York Liberty in the title game. However, the Liberty would later turn the tables by beating the Lynx in the 2024 WNBA Finals, showing just how competitive and unpredictable the league has become. That narrative has only heightened expectations for the 2025 edition. With parity across both conferences and young talent emerging throughout the league, the title is truly up for grabs.

The SEC Championship game between Texas A&M and Oklahoma has been canceled
AI-assisted summary Texas A&M run-ruled Texas 14-2 in the SEC Tournament semifinal. The championship game against Oklahoma was initially rescheduled due to rain, then ultimately canceled. Texas A&M and Oklahoma were declared co-champions. This is Texas A&M's first SEC Championship title in program history. No. 1 Texas A&M (45-9, 16-7 SEC) run-ruled the Texas Longhorns 14-2 on Friday night during the SEC Tournament semifinal round, just a day after run-ruling South Carolina on Thursday evening. Entering Saturday, the Aggies are the hottest team in the country and have earned a spot in the SEC Tournament Championship against perennial contender Oklahoma. However, due to inclement weather in Athens, Georgia, the Championship game had been moved up to noon CT., but the rain continued to pour down in the Peach State, leading to the first delay of the afternoon. Given that the game had already been moved from its original 6:00 p.m. start time, the trend regarding if both teams would meet on Saturday was less than favorable. Just an hour after the first delay, it was revealed that SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey decided to cancel the Championship Game and reward Texas A&M and Oklahoma as co-champions, which technically serves as the Aggies' first SEC Championship in program history. Here is Sankey's official announcement regarding the cancellation: For both teams, this is not the way they wanted to go out before entering the NCAA Tournament, especially for an A&M team that was looking to outright earn an SEC Championship amid the program's best season under head coach Trisha Ford. Why Sankey couldn't reschedule the game for Sunday is confusing, and given the early part of the afternoon, it's also a surprise he and his team didn't wait longer for the rain to potentially stop.
