With the Washington Mystics losing Sunday to the Dallas Wings, the Connecticut Sun for the seventh time are heading to the postseason.
The Sun have clinched a berth in the 2023 WNBA Playoffs.
In 2022 they also went to the postseason, however they fell to the Las Vegas Aces in the Finals series, 3-1.
Connecticut made WNBA postseason history during the 2022 playoffs. The Sun’s 18-0 scoring run to end Game 5 of the Semifinal series against Chicago marked the longest scoring run any team has mounted to finish a playoff game in league history.
The Connecticut Sun are 37-37 in postseason play and have not been eliminated earlier than the Semifinals since the 2018 season.
