UConn in the WNBA: Diana Taurasi sets league record with 28 threes in five games

There’s just over a week in the WNBA regular season, and while the exact date is still listed as to be decided on the league’s website, playoffs are expected to start shortly after the September 12th regular season finale. Six teams have clinched playoff berths, leaving the remaining six fighting for the final two spots.

So far, eight Huskies are set to make playoff appearances (for Seattle, Minnesota, Chicago and Phoenix) — a number that would be higher if not for the recent injuries and bubble exits of Bria Hartley and Azura Stevens.

Connecticut and Dallas currently look like the favorites to secure the final two spots, which would add additional former UConn players to the total.
