On August 2, 2026 the Dallas Wings broke a two‑game skid with a 20‑2 third‑quarter surge, defeating the Connecticut Sun 83‑63 at College Park Center. Jessica Shepard and Arike Ogunbowale each contributed 15 points, while the Sun were hampered by Brittney Griner’s ongoing knee injury.

The next day the franchise announced a permanent move to downtown Dallas. Beginning with the 2027 season the Wings will share the American Airlines Center with the NBA’s Mavericks under a 15‑year city use agreement. Construction delays at the planned Dallas Memorial Auditorium made the arena a temporary solution, and CEO Greg Bibb called the relocation a “pivotal step” for the team’s growth. A new $55 million training facility is also slated for a Dallas neighborhood, aiming to boost fan access and visibility for women’s basketball in the region.
