WNBA Streak Watch
WNBA Streak Watch, Toronto Tempo's Run Hits 4
Published
Streaks are the league's pulse. You can read the whole mood of WNBA off who keeps stacking wins and who cannot find the exit, and this morning's board, counted straight from the results table, has some runs worth talking about.
As of this morning, five different teams are riding runs of three or more in one direction or the other, a busy board by any standard.
Riding high
Las Vegas Aces just keep stacking, three wins in a row, the best active streak going. At some point a run stops being a coincidence and starts being a statement, and they are somewhere past that point.
Dallas Wings are building a case of their own at 3 straight.
Golden State Valkyries join the party at 3 straight.
Going the wrong way
Toronto Tempo cannot find the exit: four consecutive losses and counting. The schedule keeps coming regardless, which is either mercy or cruelty depending on the next opponent.
Chicago Sky have dropped 3 in a row themselves.
At a glance
For the record, here is everything currently running at three-plus:
| Team | Active streak |
|---|---|
| Toronto Tempo | lost 4 straight |
| Las Vegas Aces | won 3 straight |
| Chicago Sky | lost 3 straight |
| Dallas Wings | won 3 straight |
| Golden State Valkyries | won 3 straight |
Worth remembering
A 4-game run is long enough that it stops being a footnote and starts being the lead, expect it to come up in every broadcast until it ends.
None of these runs are forever. Enjoy them as stories, count them honestly, and remember the results table starts blank again tomorrow.
One to circle: Seattle Storm meet Los Angeles Sparks in their next game, and we will find out quickly whether this stretch travels.
