1. Said, since you're referring to something that happened in the past.
2. Of, since the menu belongs to the game.
3. For, because it is there FOR the WNBA.

When you ask what preposition you should use, and I'm giving the recommendation, I just recommend the same thing that I would say. If you really want "of" there, it won't be wrong. On the other hand, it's not what I think you should say.
