Dallas Wings history

Few teams have moved as often. The franchise began as the Detroit Shock, based in Auburn Hills, Michigan, before the 1998 season, shifted to Oklahoma as the Tulsa Shock for 2010, and was announced for Arlington, Texas, on July 20, 2015, starting there in 2016. College Park Center, with 7,000 seats, is home now.

Detroit was the golden era. The Shock reached the Finals in 2003, 2006, 2007 and 2008, winning in 2003, 2006 and 2008 and losing only to Phoenix in 2007. Those titles stay with the franchise record even though the Wings count zero championships under their Dallas name. Bill Cameron chairs the ownership group, and Greg Bibb is president and CEO. Recent top picks include Paige Bueckers, chosen first in 2025, and Azzi Fudd, chosen first in 2026.
