2020 Dallas Wings season

The 2020 Dallas Wings season was the franchise's 23rd season in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) and the 5th season for the franchise in Dallas. The regular season started on July 26, 2020, versus the Atlanta Dream. This will be the second season under head coach Brian Agler.

This WNBA season will have an all-time high 36 regular-season games. However, the plan for expanded games was put on hold on April 3, when the WNBA postponed its season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under a plan approved on June 15, the league is scheduled to hold a shortened 22-game regular season at IMG Academy, without fans present, starting on July 24.

The Wings started the season strongly, winning two of their first three games. The season then took a downward turn when the team had two separate three game losing streaks, separated by only one win. Dallas finished August 3–3 to arrive at a 6–10 overall record. The team went 2–4 in September, but ended the season with a win. A bright spot for the team was Arike Ogunbowale, who lead the WNBA in scoring and was named to the All-WNBA First Team.
