The 2018 WNBA season will be the 21st season for the Dallas Wings franchise of the WNBA. This will be the franchise's 3rd season in Dallas. The season tips off on May 18.[2]
Dallas had an up and down start to the season, posting a 2–3 record in May followed by a 5–4 record in June. However all but one of these seven losses came to eventual playoff teams. The team posted an 8–5 record in July, including winning 7 of 8 games in the middle of the month. The three straight losses at the end of the month were the beginning of a nine-game losing streak.
In the midst of that losing streak, on August 12, 2018, the Wings fired their head coach Fred Williams. The team had a 14–17 record and was in the 8th and final playoff spot at the time of firing. Assistant Coach Taj McWilliams-Franklin was named the interim head coach for the remainder of the season.[3]
McWilliams-Franklin posted a 1–2 record in her three games in charge. This saw the Wings finish 1–7 in August. However, the one win was an important one. The win was against the Las Vegas Aces, the Wing's playoff rivals. The Wings secured the 8th seed in the 2018 WNBA Playoffs by one game over the Aces. The team lost to the 5th seeded Phoenix Mercury 83–101 in the first round of the playoffs to end their season.
