03/About these numbers
Every figure on this page is tallied from the final scores of 2021 fixtures, split by season type before anything is added up. W, L, PCT, PF, PA, DIFF and the home and road records are regular season only; playoff results appear in their own column and in the postseason section, and are never folded into them. PCT is wins as a share of decisions, PF and PA are season totals over the GP beside them rather than per-game rates, and GB is half the sum of the win gap and the loss gap against the club named in the section head, which shows a dash against itself.
The stored wnba_standings table is not what is printed here, because it combines the two season types and counts fixtures that have not been played. 2024 New York reads 40-12 over 52 games there; its regular season was 32-9 over 41 fixtures and its postseason 8-3 over 11. In 2026, that table’s GP counts each club’s remaining fixtures and divides wins by them, which both understates every percentage and reorders the table.
Known limits, stated rather than smoothed over. There are no conferences or divisions in this data: the columns exist and are empty on all 36 WNBA clubs and all 356 standings rows, so this page shows one league table. Order is record alone, the league’s tiebreakers are not modelled, and clubs level on percentage are separated here by point differential, so a club shown eighth may not be the club the league seeded eighth. Not every club is scheduled the same number of games this season: CON 33, SEA 33 against the 32 most clubs carry. From 2021 on the Commissioner's Cup final is stored here as a regular game and the league leaves it out of its standings; nothing in the data marks it, so it is counted on this page and shows as the extra fixture. Clubs are named as they are today, not as they were named that year, the 2002 Detroit Shock appear as the Dallas Wings. Early seasons are incomplete: 2002 has 12 clubs where the league had 16, because the missing franchises’ fixtures survive only in a scoreless second copy of the schedule that this section excludes. All-Star squads are excluded by team flag, not by season type, since the All-Star game is stored as a regular game.
