Portland’s forthcoming WNBA expansion team, set to begin play in summer 2026, unveiled its name and logo Tuesday morning. The Fire will call the Moda Center home with new branding under the ownership of RAJ Sports — the same group led by Lisa Bhathal Merage which purchased the Portland Thorns in 2024.

The Portland Fire announced its name and new logo exclusively on "Good Morning America" as the team returns to the City of Roses for the 2026 WNBA season.

Oregon's original WNBA team lasted three seasons, but the new franchise has already sold a record 11,000 season tickets.
