The WNBA has renewed its partnership with Twitter to livestream 10 regular season games this year. Wednesday’s matchup between the Seattle Storm and Atlanta Dream will be this season’s first WNBA game to stream on Twitter.

All games will broadcast on the WNBA’s Twitter account and feature alternate commentators, including basketball analysts LaChina Robinson and Ros Gold-Onwude. The renewed agreement marks the fourth straight season of WNBA games streaming on Twitter. This year’s WNBA season began in July while operating from a bubble at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla.
