The WNBA has officially named Toronto as its first international franchise, with the team set to begin playing in 2026. Owned by Kilmer Sports Ventures led by Larry Tanenbaum, the team's creation marks a significant step for women's professional sports in Canada. With the league expanding rapidly to accommodate the growing talent pool in women's basketball, Toronto's entry as the 14th team aligns with the WNBA's goal to reach 16 teams by 2028.
