Notable Storylines
High-Scoring Showdown

The Wings-Mercury series is the highest-scoring rivalry in the WNBA this season. No team has scored less than 90 points in any of the three meetings, with teams going over 100 twice. The Wings’ 107-point outing in Phoenix on May 25 remains the single highest point total by a team this season, with Arike Ogunbowale scoring 40 in that game –the single highest showing by a WNBA player in 2024. Each team has scored on average 97.7 points per game in this series.

O’s Impact

Odyssey Sims has played just six games with the Wings in 2024, but her impact has already been felt. Since her return to Dallas, the Wings have seen noticeable improvements in points per game, steals per game, turnovers per game, field goal percentage and three-point shooting. Dallas has had two of its three fewest turnover totals in games with the veteran point guard in the lineup, while half of the games this season that the Wings have scored at least 90 points have come with Sims on the floor.
