Scoreboard tracks the process

Defense-led SQ

Edge comes from tightening opponent looks and volume more than generating elite offense — 11th in expected pts allowed per game (71.1), 11th of 15 in shot diet (1.00 expected pts per attempt). Opponents shoot about their usual rate per attempt against this team.

7–31 with 15/38 SQ wins — getting the better looks more often than the scoreboard (-1.9 avg edge, -1.4 finishing). 43% FG ranks 13th of 15 on 26.6 3PA/game — 32% of attempts from above-break threes.

Season stats use 38 tracked team games (May 1–Aug 25, 2026) from 293 league-wide — not the complete WNBA schedule. Totals refresh as games finalize. SQ wins count games where this team got the better looks; they can differ from W–L.

Public ESPN shot data only — no defender distance or contested-shot tracking. Expected value uses location, player zone history, and shot clock, not how open the shooter was. Methodology
