Season stats use 38 tracked team games (May 1–Aug 24, 2026) from 290 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
