Following the wild Saturday night win, the Dodgers received a plethora of support and congratulations from L.A. icons and sports franchises, one of which included the WNBA's Sparks.

The purple and gold — league champions in 2001, 2002 and 2016 — delivered a message on X soon after the Dodgers' title.

"We know a little something about back-to-back championships ... Congrats @Dodgers!" the Sparks wrote on Nov. 2.

Furthermore, Sparks' star forward Dearica Hamby also shared support for the Dodgers.
