The 2025 WNBA Commissioner’s Cup, the league’s annual in-season tournament, comes down to one game. The Indiana Fever, minus Caitlin Clark, will face off against Napheesa Collier and the Minnesota Lynx in the title game at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

The Fever announced on Tuesday, July 1 that Clark would not be cleared to make her highly anticipated return to the court as she continues to recover from a left groin injury. This will be third consecutive game Clark has missed, after being sidelined five consecutive games with a quad strain earlier in June.

The Lynx, who have a league-best 14-2 record, have been here before. Minnesota returns to the Commissioner’s Cup final for the second consecutive year and looks to defend their title after defeating the New York Liberty 94–89 in the 2024 final. The Lynx are vying to become the first back-to-back WNBA Commissioner’s Cup champions.

The Fever, on the other hand, have not been in this position before and are set to make their first Commissioner’s Cup final appearance in franchise history, although Indiana is no stranger to big moments. While Clark won’t be playing, she expressed full confidence in her team when she and Collier were named an All-Star Game captains, declaring on June 29, ‘We about to get that dub.’

History is not on the Lynx side. The home team hasn’t won the Commissioner’s Cup in the tournament’s history. Instead, the visiting team has won each time, aside from the inaugural Commissioner’s Cup final that was played at a neutral site in 2021.

Will the Lynx become the first repeat champions? Or will the Fever play spoiler? Here’s everything you need to know about the 2025 WNBA Commissioner’s Cup final:

No, Clark will not play against the Minnesota Lynx in the Commissioner’s Cup final, the Fever announced hours before the game. Clark had been considered day-to-day after alerting the Fever coaching staff of a groin injury on June 25th following the Fever’s 94-86 win over the Seattle Storm on June 24. She missed the Fever’s loss vs. Los Angeles on June 26 and Indiana’s win at Dallas on June 27 with the injury.

The Dallas Stars are turning to a name from their past to lead the team into the future.

The Stars announced on Tuesday, July 1 that they have hired Glen Gulutzan as their next head coach. He was the Stars’ coach during the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons and was fired after missing the playoffs in both seasons.

But he most recently was an Edmonton Oilers assistant coach since 2018-19, running their highly successful power play that featured Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. The Oilers have reached the Stanley Cup Final the past two seasons, knocking off the Stars in the Western Conference both times.

‘Since his previous time in Dallas, Glen has worked tirelessly to establish himself as one of the most respected coaches in the NHL,’ general manager Jim Nill said. ‘His extensive NHL experience, both as a head coach and assistant coach, speaks to his ability to innovate and adapt to the modern game, as well as build relationships with his players. Glen has worked with some of the best players in the world and continually found ways to maximize their skill sets to contribute to team success. We have full confidence that he is the right person to elevate our team to the next level.’

Gulutzan, 53, replaces Peter DeBoer, who was fired on June 6 after the Stars’ third consecutive ouster in the conference finals.

DeBoer had pulled No. 1 goalie Jake Oettinger in the elimination game after he gave up two goals and said it was because the ‘status quo had not been working.’ General manager Jim Nill said those comments were a component of his decision to fire DeBoer but not the only reason.

Between Gulutzan’s stints with the Stars and the Oilers, he was an assistant coach with the Vancouver Canucks and head coach of the Calgary Flames.

He has a 146-125-23 record as a head coach, with one playoff appearance in which the Flames were swept.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander agreed to a four-year, $285 million extension with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The Thunder may face difficult decisions regarding contract extensions for Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren.
General Manager Sam Presti has strategically drafted and developed players to create a sustainable and competitive roster.

This is exactly the kind of contract available to a player like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, particularly after such a historic NBA season.

The 26-year-old guard is coming off a season in which he was the scoring champion, regular season Most Valuable Player and NBA Finals MVP, and has reportedly agreed to a four-year supermax extension worth $285 million with the Oklahoma City Thunder. He became only the fourth player in NBA history have completed that trifecta, joining Michael Jordan, Shaquille O’Neal and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Now, Gilgeous-Alexander’s annual average salary of $71.25 million will become the richest in NBA history. It also sets up a complicated calculus the Thunder, the youngest roster in the NBA, must navigate in the coming years.

Thunder contracts that could come next

Both Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren were drafted in 2022 and both are eligible for rookie maximum extensions this summer. Although the extensions would not kick in until the start of the 2026-27 season, Oklahoma City would have a massive amount of salary tied up in three players if it opted to do so.

Williams is more of a priority. A first-time All-Star, Williams emerged as a steady and efficient closer in the playoffs, averaging 23.6 points per game in the NBA Finals, including a 40-point masterpiece in Game 5. He’s 24 and dependable, appearing in 248 of a possible 279 games (including playoffs) in his three seasons.

Holmgren, 23, has shined in moments, but has also been susceptible to occasional sluggish play; his 4-point performance in Game 6 stands out. He has battled injuries early in his career, appearing in just 147 games (including playoffs) over the same span.

What Thunder roster decisions does GM Sam Presti have to make?

Some players will walk. That’s simply the nature of the contemporary NBA under the 2023 Collective Bargaining Agreement, with its punitive first and second apron triggers. It’s also a marker of success in player development.

Some decisions will be difficult, particularly if players deservedly seek out their fair market value. Players like defensive stopper Luguentz Dort — whom coach Mark Daigneault said “set an unbelievable tone” in Game 4 — will likely become too expensive.

Eventually, players like Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins could be more affordable replacements.

Some decisions may be even tougher than that.

Holmgren is a player that the Thunder could potentially opt to trade or let walk, if they felt the financial strain of three max players would become too cumbersome.

To that end, the Thunder drafted 19-year-old forward Thomas Sorber out of Georgetown with the No. 15 selection in the 2025 NBA Draft. Sorber is more of a traditional big and doesn’t have quite the same skill set or range that Holmgren has. But he’s far more affordable and would provide far more roster flexibility.

This reflects the brilliance of general manager Sam Presti’s approach to building the OKC roster.

While assembling the youngest and most complete roster, Presti has also been collecting draft capital and has been selecting players — read: cheaper players — he has been stashing away. Those players can continue to develop in Oklahoma City’s effective program and can blossom into viable replacements for the emerging stars it lets walk.

These are good problems to have, the problems of an efficiently and well-managed franchise.

Now, all he has to do is hit on the draft picks he does keep.

(This story was updated to change a video.)

Perhaps the first day of NBA free agency didn’t have the massive, franchise-altering moves fans have become used to, but there were clear cases of teams capitalizing on the open market.

Just the same, there were also cases of teams that took on uninspiring and alarmingly quiet approaches to the sudden availability of players.

The common theme, as it has been since the 2023 Collective Bargaining Agreement was signed, appears to be a fear of punitive first- and second-apron sanctions.

The window to negotiate contracts opened at 6 p.m. ET Monday, June 30, and a flurry of deals came in, though deals cannot officially be signed until July 6.

Here are the early winners and losers from Day 1 of NBA free agency.

WINNERS

Houston Rockets

This is a clear signal that Houston is going all-in on its perceived championship window. Trading for Kevin Durant is one thing, but staying aggressive and adding forward Dorian Finney-Smith and center Clint Capela shores up a roster that suddenly has size, length and speed at the wing — a recipe for success in the modern NBA.

Already an excellent defensive team, Houston should be a nightmare when it needs a stop and gets its specialty lineup on the floor.

Denver Nuggets

When the Nuggets won the NBA Finals two years ago, their depth was a key asset. Flipping Michael Porter Jr. and a 2032 unprotected first rounder for the far cheaper Cameron Johnson allowed Denver to reunite with defensive-minded guard Bruce Brown.

Atlanta Hawks

A very good week for new general manager Onsi Saleh continued. After landing Kristaps Porziņģis at a discount and excelling in the draft, Saleh continued to remake the Hawks into a contender in the wide-open East. Atlanta reportedly added shooting in Luke Kennard and wing defense in Nickeil Alexander-Walker. When paired with steal machine Dyson Daniels, that’s a defensive backcourt that should cause problems for the rest of the conference.

Players who are cashing in

Players like center Luke Kornet (four years, $41 million to the Spurs), Nickeil Alexander-Walker (four years, $62 million in a sign-and-trade to the Hawks), guard Ty Jerome (three years, $28 million to the Grizzlies) and forward-center Santi Aldama (three years, $52.5 million) should all be celebrated for cashing in on their improved play.

You might as well throw Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. for reportedly landing a five-year max extension worth $248 million in there, too.

LOSERS

The middle tier of the Western Conference

It’s bad enough that the West has to contend with a young powerhouse in the NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder. But now, with the Rockets going all-in and the Nuggets improving, the top teams in the conference may be building a significant gap over the middle tier of the West.

The Lakers finished third and are signaling an emphasis on the future. The Clippers finished fifth and reportedly added Brook Lopez (two years, $18 million), but is that enough? The Timberwolves reportedly lost defensive wing Nickeil Alexander-Walker in a sign-and-trade.

The middle class in a salary-cap starved league

In the punitive first- and second-apron era, NBA free agency may not have quite the same sizzle as it once did. Teams like the Celtics have had to break up rosters to shed salary to avoid expensive sanctions triggered by surpassing certain payroll markers.

That has led to a cross section of veterans like guards Jordan Clarkson (Jazz) and Cole Anthony (Grizzlies) reportedly being bought out. It has also led veterans like guards Tyus Jones and Gary Trent Jr. to encounter a depressed market fearful of creeping into the luxury tax. Because the Nets were the only team that entered free agency with significant cap space, it appears that other teams may have used that as leverage to be moderate in the contracts offered.

Los Angeles Lakers

The statement LeBron James’ agent, Rich Paul, released when James opted in to his $52.6 million player option seemed to unsettle Lakers fans. It hinted that the Lakers are building for a post-James era, perhaps signaling some rebuilding to come. But losing 3-and-D wing Dorian Finney-Smith — a player Los Angeles acquired in a late-December trade — for nothing is questionable roster management.

L.A. did reportedly add forward Jake LaRavia, but it’s wholly uninspiring.

Milwaukee Bucks

Everyone will be watching Giannis Antetokounmpo after ESPN reported during the NBA draft that he would be closely monitoring Milwaukee’s moves. Antetokounmpo reportedly wants to win, and it’s unclear if retaining Gary Trent Jr., Kevin Porter Jr. and Taurean Prince but losing Brook Lopez is enough to keep him happy.

Miami Heat

They finished 10th in the East but secured the No. 8 seed via the play in-tournament … then were swept in the first round in historic fashion, the final two games by a combined 92 points. Heat president Pat Riley said May 9 at his end-of-season press conference that “there has to be some change” and that Miami “probably won’t run it back.”

Thus far, the opposite looks true. Terry Rozier and Andrew Wiggins, an expensive pair of players who have underwhelmed, remain on the roster. Duncan Robinson, an undrafted player who has shined in moments, did Miami a solid by reportedly exercising an early termination option to ease the cap burden. If the Heat do work on a revised long-term deal with Robinson, it signals more of the status quo.

As it stands right now, the only player on the books for next season who wasn’t with the team last year is No. 20 overall pick Kasparas Jakučionis.

Amid a Big Ten quarterback club defined by fresh faces and incoming transfers, Drew Allar is one major reason why Penn State may be poised to leap ahead of Oregon and Ohio State and deliver the program’s first national championship in almost 40 years.

While there are several newcomers with starting experience – including UCLA’s Nico Iamaleava and Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza – Allar is one of only five returning starters in the conference, joining Luke Altmyer at Illinois, Dylan Raiola at Nebraska, Aidan Chiles at Michigan State and Athan Kaliakmanis at Rutgers.

That experience could be a major edge for Penn State. In comparison, Ohio State is leaning heavily toward sophomore Julian Sayin and Oregon will tap redshirt sophomore Dante Moore, who previously started five games at UCLA.

While Sayin and Moore are pegged as future stars, Allar has 29 games of starting experience and is range of every passing record in Nittany Lions program history. That makes him the safest bet in the Big Ten and one of the top players at his position in the Bowl Subdivision.

Beginning with Allar, here’s how Big Ten quarterback stack up:

1. Drew Allar, Penn State

Allar won’t struggle for motivation after his junior year ended with a devastating interception in the team’s CFP semifinal game against Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl. He’ll be in his second season with offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki and surrounded by a top-notch offensive line and one of the nation’s top collections of skill talent, especially in the backfield. Look for Allar to have a hugely productive year and contend for the Heisman Trophy.

2. Luke Altmyer, Illinois

The former Mississippi transfer had 26 total touchdowns against six interceptions in a breakout 2024 season that saw the Fighting Illini win 10 games. Like Allar, Altmyer is a multiple-year starter at the same program amid a Big Ten quarterback crop that’s otherwise defined by youth, inexperience and first-year transfers.

BIG REGRET: Big Ten bullying SEC on schedule will backfire

3. Dylan Raiola, Nebraska

There are three reasons why Raiola is set for a sophomore surge. The first is the experience gained from an uneven freshman year that skidded to a finish after a very solid start. The second is the stronger supporting cast, especially at receiver. And the third is Nebraska offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen, one of the best in the country.

4. Dante Moore, Oregon

Moore started at UCLA in 2023 and then spent last season learning the Ducks’ system behind Dillon Gabriel. Look for the former five-star recruit to grab this opportunity and run with it to become the next super-productive Oregon starter.

5. Julian Sayin, Ohio State

Sayin is still expected to grab the starting job, though Lincoln Kienholz made things interesting with a strong performance in the spring. As with Moore, he’s extremely gifted and set to benefit from playing alongside stars such as Jeremiah Smith, among others. Unlike Moore, though, Sayin has no starting experience and could take some time to steady himself.

6. Nico Iamaleava, UCLA

Iamaleava will be one of this season’s most-watched players after his dramatic exit from Tennessee. He’ll have a harder time at UCLA, which showed improvement in the second half of its first year under coach Deshaun Foster but is not anywhere near the Volunteers’ level. But Iamaleava has led an SEC team to the playoff and is viewed in some circles as one of the top four or five quarterback prospects in the FBS.

7. Fernando Mendoza, Indiana

Mendoza takes over for Kurtis Rourke as Indiana looks to follow up on last year’s shocking playoff berth. The former California starter threw for over 3,000 yards with 18 scores last season and should flourish in Curt Cignetti’s explosive offense.

8. Jayden Maiava, Southern California

Maiava is the unquestioned starter for the Trojans after Miller Moss transferred to Louisville. Formerly of UNLV, Maiava went 3-1 after taking over last November but really struggled with turnovers, tossing five across the Trojans’ loss to Notre Dame and bowl win against Texas A&M.

9. Bryce Underwood, Michigan

After enrolling in time for spring practice, Underwood has steadily climbed Michigan’s depth chart to become the odds-on starter as a true freshman. The five-star prospect has a uniquely stacked skill set and the complementary pieces to shine as a rookie, though it’s obvious that he’ll also need time and patience to crack his full potential.

10. Mark Gronkowski, Iowa

Gronkowski is one of the most intriguing new starters in the Power Four. The former South Dakota State transfer was a star on the Championship Subdivision level, leading the Jackrabbits to a pair of national championships and winning the Walter Payton Award in 2023 as the best overall player on the FCS ranks. How that production translates to the Big Ten will determine where Iowa falls in the playoff race.

11. Demond Williams Jr., Washington

Williams is more than ready to take over for the Huskies based on his play as a freshman. A backup for most of the year, he ascended to the starting job in late November and played well enough to ratchet up expectations heading into September. Williams completed 82.7% of his attempts for 575 yards and five touchdowns with one interception in losses to Oregon and Louisville.

12. Aidan Chiles, Michigan State

Things didn’t exactly go smoothly for Chiles after following former Oregon State coach Johnathan Smith to East Lansing. But the junior did cut down on his turnovers in the second half of the season after a rough start and showed flashes of the dual-threat athleticism that makes him such an interesting prospect, most notably in totaling over 300 yards of total offense in a win against Iowa.

13. Athan Kaliakmanis, Rutgers

Kaliakmanis is a high-floor starter who has a command of the scheme and the clear trust of the coaching staff after leading Rutgers into bowl play last season. To take the next step, Kaliakmanis and the Scarlet Knights have to improve on third down and in the fourth quarter after dropping four games by a possession in 2024.

14. Billy Edwards Jr., Wisconsin

Edwards brings to Wisconsin plenty of experience after making nearly 500 attempts across his three years at Maryland. As the starter last season, Edwards threw for 2,881 yards on 6.9 yards per attempt with 15 touchdowns. He’s not really a difference-maker and won’t contend for all-conference accolades, but Edwards is a serviceable starter in the Big Ten – and that would be a big improvement over what the Badgers have drawn from the position in coach Luke Fickell’s first two years.

15. Preston Stone, Northwestern

Stone is the latest quarterback transfer to take the job at Northwestern after starting for SMU in 2023 and mostly playing backup last season to Kevin Jennings. The former four-star prospect threw for 33 scores and only seven interceptions across these two years, and that ability to limit mistakes will be a big positive for a passing game that managed just seven touchdowns with 11 interceptions in 2024.

16. Drake Lindsey, Minnesota

Lindsey has already drawn raves from coach P.J. Fleck after taking command of Minnesota’s offseason competition to replace a one-year rental in Max Brosmer. To ease his transition, the Gophers need to get their offensive line in order and establish a tone-setting ground game behind running back Darius Taylor.

17. Ryan Browne, Purdue

Browne left Purdue in December for North Carolina but then reversed course in April to return to the Boilermakers. After all that, he’s in position to start under new coach Barry Odom. Browne made two starts in his first two seasons, losing both games, and has four touchdowns and four interceptions in 92 career attempts.

18. Malik Washington, Maryland

There is plenty of hype around Washington, the current favorite to grab the job for the Terrapins and conceivably start a multiple-year run in the lineup. If so, look for the freshman to take his lumps on one of the weaker teams in the Big Ten but gain valuable experience to lean on moving forward.

One year with the New York Giants was enough to convince tight end Darren Waller to retire. Now, he’s set to make an NFL comeback with a new team.

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the New York Giants are trading the newly un-retired tight end to the Miami Dolphins.

The move comes roughly 13 months after Waller announced his retirement – he cited a health scare he experienced in November 2023 as the reason – and one day after the Dolphins traded tight end Jonnu Smith to the Pittsburgh Steelers as part of the Jalen Ramsey-Minkah Fitzpatrick trade.

Waller, 32, last played for the Giants in 2023. That year, he caught 52 passes for 552 yards – second-most on the team that year – and one touchdown.

Prior to his one-year stint with New York, Waller had played five seasons with the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders. He made a Pro Bowl in 2020 after recording a second-straight 1,000-yard season, but injuries shortened all three of the seasons that followed.

In 2021, Waller missed one game with an ankle injury and five games with a knee injury. The following year, he missed eight games – and all but six snaps of a ninth – with a hamstring strain. In 2023, Waller’s last season, another hamstring injury kept Waller out five games.

Darren Waller trade details

Dolphins receive:

TE Darren Waller
Conditional 2027 seventh-round pick

Giants receive:

2026 sixth-round pick

Waller and a conditional 2027 seventh-round pick are headed to Miami for a 2026 sixth-round pick, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

In addition to acquiring Waller, the Dolphins are giving the formerly retired tight end a one-year deal ‘worth up to $5 million,’ Schefter wrote on social media website X.

It’s the second time in Waller’s career he’s being traded. The first came in 2023, when the Giants sent a third-round pick to the Raiders for the tight end, who at the time was among the league’s highest-paid at his position.

Why did the Dolphins trade for Waller?

Miami needed a tight end to replace Jonnu Smith after it traded him to the Steelers as part of the deal that reunited the Dolphins with safety Minkah Fitzpatrick.

Smith was coming off of a career year with the Dolphins in 2024. His 88 receptions, 884 yards and eight touchdowns all either set new career highs or matched previous ones. It was enough to earn him his first career Pro Bowl nod after eight seasons in the league.

But as Smith tried to cash in on his big year with a contract extension, Miami ultimately decided to part ways with the veteran via trade. He received a one-year, $12 million extension with Pittsburgh after the trade.

Waller represents a possible replacement for Smith at the tight end spot. The cost to acquire the oft-injured, eight-year NFL veteran was minimal – a sixth-round pick in next year’s draft – while Waller’s potential ceiling could greatly help Miami’s passing offense work the middle of the field.

As Palm Beach Post’s Joe Schad put it, ‘Low-cost move probably worth the flier.’

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just became the richest player in NBA history by annual salary with the super max extension he signed Tuesday. But how does it compare to some of the top contracts in the NFL?

By total value, Gilgeous-Alexander’s $285 million contract would rank third of all active NFL players right now. Only Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen have signed bigger deals by total value.

However, the fact that Gilgeous-Alexander’s deal is for four years – not 10 like Mahomes’ or six like Allen’s – means the average annual value of his salary exceeds that of any NFL player.

USA TODAY Sports has compiled the top-10 NFL contracts by total value and average annual value to show how they compare to that of the NBA’s new leader in average annual value:
