Watched Wargames last night for the first time in a long time and I can confirm that it is still an absolute perfect movie.
It’s a movie about the dangers of handing over important decisions to a hallucinating AI.

The Fever were down by 14 with 6:25 left in the game.
It was the 4th most improbable comeback of the season.
Kelsey Mitchell's +75% win probability added is the 2nd highest mark of the 2025 season.

Pace and efficiency trends for the WNBA going back to 1998.
To the left -> faster pace
To the top -> more efficient offense

As with the NBA, there has been a recent trend towards faster pace and more efficient offense.
