WNBA power rankings: How far do the Aces drop after an opening-game debacle?
Welcome to The Athletic’s 2026 WNBA power rankings. We’re tweaking the format this season to focus a little more on the teams moving up and down, so expect even more movement than usual.That’s especially true for the start of the season, after the defending champs lost by 33 points on their home court, the runners-up forgot how to play defense in the second half of a back-to-back, and the other two 2025 semifinalists lost heartbreakers at home. It wasn’t just the expansion teams who were unable to deliver their fans opening-day victories — in total, home teams were 2-9 through the first three days.Without further ado, let’s get to it.
