The 2025 WNBA season is here, and for the Seattle Storm and Phoenix Mercury, the campaign tips off Saturday with a clash at PHX Arena.
Phoenix has undergone a major change this offseason, with four of last year's starters no longer on the team's roster. It's going to be strange to see the Mercury on the court without Diana Taurasi and Brittney Griner, but Phoenix was aggressive in replacing their big names. With Alyssa Thomas and Satou Sabally arriving in offseason trades, Phoenix still has its fair share of all-league talent.
There's a similar vibe with Seattle, who traded Jewell Loyd to the Las Vegas Aces during the offseason. Alysha Clark has returned, adding to a front line that includes 2024 All-WNBA Second Teamer Nneka Ogwumike and center Ezi Magbegor. Seattle expected more than a first-round playoff exit last season, so there's pressure to prove this group can take the next step.
Here's how to watch the Storm-Mercury game, including time, TV channel, and streaming options:
