ADDITIONS TO THE W
Start with the two roads that can put a player on a WNBA roster.
College prospects are building toward the draft. UPSHOT pros are building fresh professional film and competing for call-ups. Those are the first two desks because the player pathway is the point.
Class Is in Session
A comprehensive college basketball headquarters built around the players with games that could translate to the W: draft radar, season pulse, Stat Kitchen, freshmen, film and W-ready skills.
The Call Up
The full UPSHOT League hub starts with the WNBA pathway, then tracks standings, the Founding Four, team rooms, Stat Kitchen, results, history and expansion.
WHERE DO THE NEXT JOBS COME FROM?
Expansion Watch has its own four-league map.
Growth creates roster spots, but every league grows differently. Expansion Watch now separates the W, UPSHOT, Unrivaled and Athletes Unlimited instead of forcing four different models onto one timeline.
The road to 18
Cleveland 2028, Detroit 2029, Philadelphia 2030, expansion draft mechanics and earlier growth waves.
Founding Four to six
Baltimore and Nashville join the development league and create more professional roster opportunities.
Six clubs became eight
Breeze and Hive enter in Year Two while the original clubs and player pool shift around them.
Evolution without franchises
Named teams, weekly redrafts, format changes and the 2027 pause are tracked on their own terms.
ALREADY IN THE W?
That is a different lane.
Unrivaled and Athletes Unlimited feature established WNBA pros continuing to compete outside the W season. They now live under No Offseason, not inside the developmental pipeline.
