The 2021 Dallas Wings season was the franchise's 24th season in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) and the 6th season for the franchise in Dallas. This was the first season under new head coach Vickie Johnson, after she was hired on December 9, 2020.[1]

The Wings had the #1 and #2 picks in the 2021 WNBA draft. They selected Charli Collier and Awak Kuier, while also adding top talents in Chelsea Dungee and Dana Evans.

The Wings won their first game of the season, but couldn't keep the momentum going as they lost their next four games in a row, to finish May with a 1–4 record. The team improved during the month of June, posting a 7–5 overall record including wins at Seattle and a two-game sweep of Phoenix. The team faltered in July going 1–3 including three straight losses heading into the Olympic break. At the Olympic break their record was 9–12. After the break, they alternated loss and wins to post a 2–3 record in August. They finished out the regular season 3–3 in September, and secured a playoff berth after a win on September 11 vs. the New York Liberty. Their overall record of 14–18 earned the seventh seed in the 2021 WNBA Playoffs.

In the first round of the playoffs, they faced off against the Chicago Sky. The Sky dominated the game from the outset and the Wings outscored the Sky in only one quarter of the game. The Wings lost 64–81 to end their season.
