It's the final week of the WNBA regular season, with the LA Sparks looking to keep their playoff hopes alive against the Dallas Wings on Sunday. The Sparks welcome the Wings at the Crypto.com Arena, needing a win and more to help their chances of returning to the postseason.
The Wings have already been eliminated from playoff contention and could finish with the worst record in the league. The Sparks, on the other hand, suffered back-to-back losses to the Atlanta Dream, which nearly ended their pursuit of the final playoff spot.
Fans can watch the Wings-Sparks game on local channels, such as KFAA in Dallas and Spectrum SportsNet in Los Angeles. It's also available via live stream on the WNBA League Pass, which is a paid subscription platform. Tipoff is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. EST.

Dallas Wings vs. LA Sparks Preview
Sunday's game is the fourth and final meeting of the season between the Wings and Sparks. The Sparks are looking to get the sweep, though the last two games were both one-point wins. Nevertheless, this game is about survival for the Sparks and some luck.
For the Sparks to make the playoffs, they need to win their final three games, and the Storm lose their final game of the campaign. The Fever will also need to lose their final two games of the season, so it's a tall task for Kelsey Plum and company.
