WNBA Trade Deadline Spurs Active Negotiations

News summary

As the Aug. 7 WNBA trade deadline approaches, teams are exploring significant moves to enhance playoff prospects or rebuild for the future. The Chicago Sky are considering trading veterans Allen and Williams to better support their young core, while standout players like DiJonai Carrington and Aaliyah Edwards are seen as likely trade candidates. The Seattle Storm, equipped with multiple 2026 first-round picks, are actively pursuing upgrades such as Marina Mabrey and Ariel Atkins, though salary cap constraints persist. Most teams remain hesitant to part with future picks due to anticipated CBA changes. Title contenders like the Liberty and Mercury seek final roster pieces, while rebuilding teams such as the Wings and Sun are looking to acquire draft capital. The hard salary cap and expiring contracts may limit blockbuster transactions despite anticipated negotiation activity.
