In the WNBA playoff format, the top eight teams with the best record qualify for the postseason, regardless of conference. The No. 1 seed takes on the No. 8 seed, the No. 2 seed plays the No. 7 seed, the No. 3 seed battles the No. 6 seed, and seeds 4 and 5 will play each other.
The first round is a best-of-three series, with the semifinals having a best-of-five format.
In each round, the higher-seeded team has home-court advantage and hosts Games 1 and 2. If game 3 is necessary in the first round, that game will be played on the lower-seed team's home court.
