The WNBA on Oxygen refers to the presentation of Women's National Basketball Association games on the Oxygen[2] pay television channel. Prior to 2005,[3] the channel carried a limited schedule of regular season WNBA games produced by NBA TV. Oxygen had de facto picked up the games that previously aired on Lifetime.[4][5] Oxygen's first WNBA telecast was on June 4, 2002.[6]
