Can Caitlin Clark’s Breakout Season Propel the Fever Beyond Limits—and Will the Liberty Defy Expectations Again?
The 2025 WNBA season is kicking off, and I can’t help but wonder: with all the shake-ups, transfers, and fresh talent pouring in from the draft, who’s really poised to take the crown this year? The New York Liberty’s thrilling Game 5 overtime victory still lingers in the memory, but just like that, the landscape has shifted — an expansion team emerges, new draftees bring promise, and the regular season stands ready to deliver more drama. Enter TRACR, our trusty metric that cuts through the noise by measuring team performance relative to the league average — basically, it tells us who’s overperforming (or underperforming) by points per 100 possessions. With an expanded 44-game slate and an uneven split of teams between the East and West, crunching these numbers reveals not just who’s favored but who might just surprise us all. So, buckle up, because the paths to the playoffs are carved here — but the real question remains: Can anyone topple the Liberty, or is a new era just about to begin? LEARN MORE.
The 2025 WNBA season is upon us and weâve brought our TRACR ratings to the league this year. See who projects to be the best in the W.
It doesnât seem that long ago the New York Liberty were beating the Minnesota Lynx in a Game 5 overtime thriller to win their first WNBA championship.
