The Connecticut Sun began its time in the WNBA as the Orlando Miracle in 1998. The team was given a new name when it was purchased by the Connecticut’s Mohegan Tribe and relocated to the New England state. The Sun has experienced ups and downs through the years, from making the playoffs to coming in last. The team features some of the best players in basketball today— including DiJonai Carrington and Alyssa Thomas. Coached by Rachid Meziane, the Sun is considered one of the top teams in the women’s league despite never winning a championship. Part of the WNBA series, Connecticut Sun tells the story of this team’s most thrilling highs and deepest lows.

WNBA Series

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.
