Prime Video has released its schedule for the 2026 WNBA season. It’s showing 30 exclusive regular season games, the Commissioner’s Cup Championship, as well as exclusive post-season coverage.

Prime’s WNBA’s 30th season games begin on 15 May when the Minnesota Lynx meet 2025 WNBA Rookie of the Year Paige Bueckers, No. 1 Draft Pick Azzi Fudd and the Dallas Wings.

Prime’s opening night continues with the New York Liberty vs the newcomer Portland Fire at 3am BST.

As part of Prime Video’s broadcast in the UK and Ireland, coverage will feature WNBA on Prime Pregame, a 30-minute show prior to every game live from Amazon Studios in Culver City.

In addition, every game will be followed by WNBA Nightcap, a postgame show featuring player interviews and in-depth analysis of the game.

For doubleheaders, Prime will bridge games with The Crossover, continuing live coverage from the studio.

The studio programming will be anchored by a team of analysts and broadcasters bringing championship experience, deep basketball knowledge, and fresh perspectives to game night.

The on-air team includes Hall of Famers Swin Cash, Candace Parker, Cynthia Cooper and Teresa Weatherspoon, former WNBA player and current NBA assistant coach Lindsey Harding, two-time Olympic gold medalist and current Duke University Women’s Basketball head coach Kara Lawson, veteran broadcaster LaChina Robinson and former WNBA player and coach Ty Young.

Play-by-play voices include Michael Grady, Lisa Byinton and Mike Watts, as well as sports broadcasters JayDee Dyer, Kayla Grey and Morgan Ragan who will serve as sideline reporters. Allie Clifton, NBA on Prime sideline reporter, will serve as the studio host for WNBA on Prime’s pregame, halftime and postgame coverage.

Prime Video will also bring a number of interactive features to WNBA on Prime around the world, including customisable multiview across all devices for simultaneous viewing of WNBA on Prime and WNBA League Pass games. There will also be stats featuring box scores and advanced stats powered by AWS, updated in real time throughout the game.

“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with the WNBA, and are excited to deliver comprehensive coverage that celebrates the game and tells the stories of these amazing athletes” said Jared Stacy, Prime Video VP of global live sports production. “As the WNBA enters its 30th season, we look forward to honoring the league’s rich history while providing insightful analysis and compelling storytelling about today’s game and stars.”
