The Portland Fire (15-22) visit the Dallas Wings (22-16) for a 2026 WNBA regular season matchup on Tuesday, August 25, at College Park Center.
Portland and Dallas have split their two matchups this season, and the games were very closely fought. Back in June, the Fire escaped with a one-point win. The next month, the Wings got their revenge via a 101-97 victory.
But the Wings are on better momentum right now, having won back-to-back games. That includes a morale-boosting 91-85 win over the Indiana Fever, with Arike Ogunbowale's team-high 32 points leading the way. Jessica Shepard chipped in 26 points and 8 rebounds.
Most importantly for the Wings, they have extra incentive to win on Tuesday. Beating the Fire would eliminate them from playoff contention, which would then clinch a postseason appearance for the Wings.
As for the Fire, they've lost two games in a row, hurting their playoff chances even more. They're coming off a 105-100 loss to the Washington Mystics, where their defense collapsed in the fourth quarter, giving up 40 points to their opponents.
That has been the story of the season for the Fire, as they have the second-worst defensive rating in the league (114.2).

Our Dallas Wings vs Portland Fire Prediction
A win on Tuesday clinches a playoff spot for the Wings, giving them extra motivation to perform well. Dallas has won two in a row, including that strong victory against the Indiana Fever.
The Fire would need a win to keep their slim playoff hopes alive, but it will be difficult, especially with their hapless defense. Our prediction for the Dallas Wings vs Portland Fire match is: Wings (-8.5) cover the spread.
