WNBA Streak Watch, Dallas Wings's Run Hits 4

Every result in WNBA feeds a streak somewhere, and a few of them have now grown big enough to deserve names. Everything below comes straight off the results; nothing fancier than counting.

As of this morning, six different teams are riding runs of three or more in one direction or the other, a busy board by any standard.

The win-column crowd

The longest active run belongs to Dallas Wings: four consecutive wins. Nobody stays hot forever, but while it lasts, every night has looked like a rerun of the same comfortable movie.

Behind them, Golden State Valkyries have quietly won 4 in a row.

Add Las Vegas Aces to the list too, 3 in a row.

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.

It is not much prettier for Chicago Sky, losers of 3 straight.

And Connecticut Sun are quietly carrying a 3-game slide of their own.

By the numbers

The full board, longest runs first:

One more thing

At 4 games, the board's longest streak is officially a main character; nothing else in the league gets talked about the same way while it lives.

None of these runs are forever. Enjoy them as stories, count them honestly, and remember the results table starts blank again tomorrow.
