The WNBA is leveling up in a BIG way for 2026—and the Indiana Fever are right at the center of it all. On today’s episode of Locked On Women’s Basketball, Kalia Butler (Chicago Sky sideline reporter) and Sophia Jones (Portland Fire radio analyst) break down the biggest storylines heading into the new season: 🏀 Segment 1: National TV Takeover The Fever will have ALL 44 games nationally televised this season—yes, every single one. We react to the full TV schedule rollout, including how it compares to teams like the Wings, Liberty, Aces, and Sparks. Plus: Is the league spreading exposure the right way? And will fans be able to keep up with games across ABC, ESPN, Prime Video, ION, CBS, NBC, and more? 🏀 Segment 2: Sparks Playoff Chances Can Nneka Ogwumike help lead the Sparks back to the postseason? We break down their veteran-heavy roster, key additions, and how new head coach Chris DeMarco could shape this team’s identity. 🏀 Segment 3: Dominique Malonga’s Moment After receiving FIBA clearance, Dominique Malonga is officially ready for the 2026 season. With Seattle in transition and injuries opening opportunities, could this be her breakout year?
