WNBA Champ May Not Celebrate Win at State Farm Arena on Thursday: Report

The Dream will host the Valkyries for Game 6 of the WNBA Finals at 12:30 p.m. ET on Thursday, which is not an ideal time slot.

The WNBA has faced a dilemma after the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Vakyries series was left without a home arena for their final matchup on Thursday, Oct. 29. The league opted to move Game 6 to 12:30 p.m. ET at State Farm Arena, in an attempt to conclude the game before the Hawks' scheduled game time. However, this decision has raised concerns regarding the championship celebrations, as the team winning the title may not have enough time to fully celebrate on the court.

ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reported that discussions are ongoing about whether the celebrations could be relocated to a practice court, which raises questions about the feasibility of fans participating in the festivities. The current series is tied 2-2, with the fifth and final game set to take place at the Chase Center in San Francisco.
