The team faltered in July going 1–3 including three straight losses heading into the Olympic break. At the Olympic break their record was 9–12.

They finished out the regular season 3–3 in September, and secured a playoff berth after a win on September 11 vs. the  New York Liberty.

The Sky dominated the game from the outset and the Wings outscored the Sky in only one quarter of the game. The Wings lost 64–81 to end their season. Statistics. Regular season. Source:
