A seventh game of the 2026 WNBA Finals was played on 31 October 2026 in San Francisco, the first Game 7 in league history, which Golden State won 68-63, as wnba.com and ESPN report.
History. 2 of 7: Golden State and Cleveland 2016, Oklahoma City and Indiana 2025.
Hunch. ESPN expects a much closer series than last year's 4-0, between the league's two best defences this season.
The seventh game market resolves on wnba.com, with ESPN as backup: YES if a seventh game of the final is played, set for 31 October 2026. If the series ends earlier, it resolves NO on the day it ends.
We looked for cases where a best-of-seven final, with home games split two, two, one, one, one, had a team with home advantage that had won every game against its rival that season. We found seven, all NBA finals from 2016 to 2025, because the WNBA played its first final of this length only in 2025.
