As far as the game itself goes, the WNBA has introduced a handful of new rules to increase the excitement and pace of play during the game. A four-point shot will be introduced during the exhibition as four circles (two on each side of the court) will be placed above the three-point line. The game will also feature a 20-second shot clock instead of the usual 24 and there will be no free throw attempts before the final two minutes of the contest/overtime. Any scenario where a player would normally go to the line, they will automatically be rewarded the points.
