The formidable athletes of the WNBA, who consistently demonstrate excellence on the court are constantly disrespected, despite their skills and achievements, women’s sports, particularly WNBA games. The league is continually overshadowed due to less favorable scheduling.

The Atlanta Dream, a team that embodies the heart of a vibrant city, is on the rise, poised to make a significant impact this WNBA Finals. The thrill of seeing Game 6 in primetime, allowing these athletes to showcase their talents to a broader audience is being denied. A game 6 in a finals series of any male sports league at 9:30am PST/12:30pm EST ON A Thursday would NEVER be tolerated.

The time of game 6 needs to be changed— point blank period. This shift not only respects the dedication of these incredible women but also sends a powerful message about gender equality in sports. It is essential to provide women athletes with the same opportunities to shine as their male counterparts.

Statistics show that viewership for women’s sports has sharply increased in recent years. By moving Game 6 of the WNBA Finals to primetime, networks can more effectively tap into this burgeoning interest, benefiting not only the league and its partners but also aspiring young athletes who dream of one day playing on such a stage.

Let’s show our support for equality and highlight the incredible talent in the WNBA by appealing to the league, broadcasters, and advertisers to give these athletes the spotlight they deserve.
