WNBA

Basketball has long been one of the most popular sports in the United States. In 1997, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) formed to give female players a league in which to play the sport at the professional level. Starting with eight teams, the WNBA has expanded over time—with several new teams joining the WNBA, some franchises disbanding, and three teams still playing in their original cities. WNBA is a fun and informative book series about the women’s pro basketball league. With striking color photographs, a fun Slam Dunk WNBA Trivia section, and a useful index, this series discusses the past, present, and future of the now twelve teams that draw fans to women’s basketball games each season.
