STAMFORD, Conn. – May 7, 2026 – The WNBA on USA Network makes its debut on Mother’s Day, this Sunday, May 10, as USA Sports begins its inaugural season covering the WNBA with 2025 Kia WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson and the defending champion Las Vegas Aces visiting Cameron Brink, Kelsey Plum and the Los Angeles Sparks live at 6 p.m. ET from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Calif. 

Sunday’s coverage begins at 5:30 p.m. ET with the debut of the WNBA on USA Pregame Show presented by Ford. Elle Duncan hosts Sunday’s studio coverage alongside 2026 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Chamique Holdsclaw and two-time WNBA champion Renee Montgomery as analysts. Kate Scott will call the game on USA Network alongside analyst Sarah Kustok and courtside reporter Paris Lawson.

Last season, Wilson secured her second consecutive and record-breaking fourth career WNBA MVP award after leading the Aces to their third title in the past four seasons. This season, the Aces return Wilson, six-time All-Star Chelsea Gray, and 2025 All-WNBA Second Teamer Jackie Young, who have each been a part of all three title teams. The Sparks look to return to the WNBA Playoffs for the first time since 2020 this season, led by four-time All-Star Plum, who led the team with 19.5 points last season, and 2024 No. 2 overall pick Brink.

Anchoring the WNBA on USA Network schedule are Wednesday night doubleheaders throughout the season, which begin on Wed., May 13 as the Aces visit the Connecticut Sun (8 p.m. ET), followed by Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever visiting the Sparks (10:30 p.m. ET).

Olsen (analyst) and Lawson (courtside reporter) will be on the call for Fever-Sparks.
