The WNBA action on August 26, 2026, brings us two intriguing matchups that promise both high stakes and thrilling performances as teams either solidify playoff positions or fight for pride. The Golden State Valkyries travel to face the Connecticut Sun, while the Toronto Tempo hit the road to challenge the Seattle Storm. Each game offers unique narratives and an opportunity for players to shine under the spotlight.
The Golden State Valkyries are on a mission. With a commanding record of 26-11, they're striding towards the postseason with confidence and a strong lineup. Our simulation model gives them a solid 62% chance to win, projecting a final score of 82.8 to 72.9 in favor of the Valkyries. Connecticut, at 10-27, is out of playoff contention, yet they remain a team that can disrupt the plans of any opponent, especially at home.
Aaliyah Edwards is the Sun’s beacon, projected to deliver a double-double with 16.3 points and 11.5 rebounds. Meanwhile, Diamond Miller and Kennedy Burke provide additional firepower. On the Valkyries side, Gabby Williams and Janelle Salaun are expected to lead the charge, supported by the versatile Veronica Burton who is predicted to contribute across the board with 11.7 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 5.7 assists.
Golden State’s depth is their true strength, and while Connecticut might play the spoiler, the Valkyries are determined to secure a top seed come playoff time.
In a clash of underdogs, the Toronto Tempo (11-26) face off against the Seattle Storm, who are struggling at 7-31. Despite their records, the simulation calls for a nail-biter, favoring Seattle with a 55% chance to clinch the victory and a predicted score of 86.8 to 83.0. The Storm are slight favorites but this matchup is anything but predictable.
Toronto’s Kiki Rice is expected to be a standout performer with 18.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 4.5 assists, while Isabelle Harrison brings her own firepower with a projected double-double. Seattle’s hopes rest largely on Dominique Malonga, who is predicted to notch nearly 11 rebounds and keep the scoreboard ticking with 17.8 points. Jade Melbourne and the rest of the Storm will need to rise to the occasion to defend their home court.
Both teams are eager to end their seasons on a high note, and with the stakes being less about playoffs and more about pride, expect a fiercely competitive game.
