Prime Video recently announced its regular-season schedule for the 2026 WNBA season. The schedule features 30 exclusive games, plus the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup Championship and postseason coverage for the first time ever. Prime’s coverage of the historic 30th WNBA season begins with a doubleheader on Thursday, May 14, when the Minnesota Lynx go up against No. 1 draft choice Azzi Fudd and the Dallas Wings at 8:00 PM ET/7:00 PM CT. Prime’s opening night continues with the New York Liberty competing against the expansion Portland Fire at 10:00 PM ET/7:00 PM PT.

“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with the WNBA, and are excited to deliver comprehensive coverage that celebrates the game and tells the stories of these amazing athletes,” said Jared Stacy, Prime Video VP of Global Live Sports Production. “As the WNBA enters its 30th season, we look forward to honoring the league’s rich history while providing insightful analysis and compelling storytelling about today’s game and stars.”

Prime Video’s 2026 coverage will feature WNBA on Prime Pregame, a 30-minute show before every game, live from Amazon Studios in Culver City, California. In between doubleheaders, Prime keeps the studio coverage going with The Crossover. Also, after every game on Prime, stay tuned for WNBA Nightcap, a postgame show featuring highlights, player interviews, and in-depth breakdowns with the studio analysts. The studio features an analyst rotation with plenty of basketball experience and original perspectives, bringing invaluable championship-level insights.

Allie Clifton, who also serves as one of the NBA on Prime’s reporters, will lead Prime’s studio coverage throughout the 2026 season. Joining her in the studio will be three-time WNBA champion and current NBA on Prime analyst Candace Parker, Hall of Famer Cynthia Cooper, and fellow Hall of Famer Swin Cash. Keep in mind that Parker and Cooper will split their time between the studio and calling games throughout the season. To complement analysts Parker, Cooper, and Cash, Prime Video has also added current Los Angeles Lakers assistant coach Lindsay Harding, 12-year WNBA veteran Ty Young, and five-time WNBA All-Star Teresa Witherspoon to make select in-studio appearances during the 2026 WNBA regular season.

Play-by-play commentators Michael Grady, Lisa Byington, and Mike Watts lend their voices to Prime’s 2026 WNBA coverage. Cooper, Parker, sports broadcasting veteran LaChina Robinson, and current Duke women’s basketball coach Kara Lawson serve as game analysts. Morgan Ragan, JayDee Dyer, and Kayla Grey will rotate sideline reporting assignments throughout the season.

“We’ve built a team that brings together championship experience, broadcasting excellence, and fresh perspectives,” says Amina Hussein, Prime Sports Head of On-Air Talent and Development. “From pioneers who helped launch the league to rising voices in sports media, we are uniquely positioned to deliver coverage that celebrates the game, educates fans, and centers the stories of the incredible athletes that make the WNBA what it is today.”

Viewers can stream WNBA games on Prime Video, mainly on Thursday nights throughout the season, along with four Saturday games and one Tuesday game.

2026 “WNBA on Prime” Schedule Highlights:
Some of the brightest and transcendent players in the sport serve as the backbone for Prime Video’s 2026 WNBA coverage: Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever (eight games), Breanna Stewart and the New York Liberty (seven games), 2025 WNBA Rookie of the Year Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings (six games), Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream (five games), & four-time league MVP A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces (four games).

Four of the eight Fever Prime games occur in the first month or so of the WNBA season. Notable early-season Fever games on Prime include May 28 (at Valkyries), June 4 (vs. Dream), June 11 (vs. Sky), & June 18 (vs. Dream). The first Fever-Dream matchups will be exclusively streamed on Prime.

Prime Video televises the WNBA’s Commissioner Cup Championship presented by Coinbase, the league’s in-season tournament, on Tuesday, June 30 (time TBD).

For the first time in the newly expanded package, Prime Video will present WNBA postseason games. Prime Video will stream one first-round series, plus seven semifinal games, and three WNBA Finals over the lifetime of an 11-year agreement with the league.
