This Sunday, there won’t be any NFL games. The main slate of Preseason Week 1 action wrapped up on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. But that shouldn’t leave sports fans without options, as plenty of high-intensity action is scheduled for Sunday.

One of the highlights is the WNBA matchup between the Seattle Storm and Chicago Sky. It’s not just about the stars on both teams, but also about how this matchup began.
Almost a week ago, the Chicago Sky opened their three-game West Coast trip against the Storm. Seattle entered that game riding an 11-game losing streak, so few expected Chicago to come away with a loss. However, Dominique Malonga and Natisha Hiedeman had other plans. Their combined effort was enough to keep the Sky at bay.
Malonga finished with 26 points, 10 rebounds, and three blocks, while Hiedeman added 18 points and nine assists. Things haven’t gone well for Chicago since then, as the Sky have committed 32 turnovers over their last two games. Naturally, DiJonai Carrington and her teammates won’t want a repeat of the previous result.
Meanwhile, golf fans have reached the final round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship. So, with plenty on the schedule, let’s check out the broadcasting details.
WNBA
The first game will feature the Chicago Sky and Seattle Storm at 5 p.m. ET, with coverage available on WNBA League Pass and local regional networks.
At the same time, the Indiana Fever will take on the Atlanta Dream, with the game airing on ESPN and Disney+. So, is a Caitlin Clark vs. Allisha Gray showdown on the cards?

A few more hours will reveal the answer. And don’t overlook Aliyah Boston’s presence in the matchup either.
Then, at 7:00 pm ET, the Portland Fire will face the Phoenix Mercury. An update says Kelsey Plum will miss the game because of calf tightness. Could that give the Fire an advantage? We’ll find out on the court.
Now, let’s turn our attention to the golf schedule.
