The Sparks organization knows how important it is to make the playoffs this year with a cast of All-Stars under the leadership of new head coach Curt Miller.
LOS ANGELES — The Sparks have several looming questions ahead of the team’s season opener on Friday when they host Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi, and the Phoenix Mercury to tip off their WNBA season on ESPN.After missing the postseason for two straight years for the first time since the franchise’s first two years in the league , and finishing last year with a 13-23 record, Sparks fans desperately want their team to make the playoffs.
Sparks forward Nneka Oguwmike, a seven-time All-Star, and the WNBA’s Most Valuable Player in 2016, is the only current player who played for the franchise that season, but Ogwumike did not play in the one-and-done playoff loss due to a migraine. If the 27-year-old, who has missed both of the Sparks preseason games, can consistently play more than 25 minutes per game, she could emerge as a star in the WNBA.
