Connecticut is on the board, taking down Seattle 80-78 for its first win of the 2026 WNBA season on Wednesday — and they’ll look to run it back against the Storm tonight.
Three Sun rookies finished in double-digit scoring, as Raegan Beers, Nell Angloma, and Charlisse Leger-Walker contributed to a team-record 62 points off the bench.
“The keywords tonight were effort and pride,” said Connecticut head coach Rachid Meziane. “I do think we won this game because we have a lot of pride.”
Seattle will aim to unlock its own offensive front in tonight’s rematch, after the Sun limited star rookie Flau’jae Johnson to just 5 points on Wednesday.
“It’s just a matter of her getting a feel for where her shots are going to come and what are the best shots she can take,” Storm head coach Sonia Raman said of Johnson.
Centers Ezi Magbegor and Dominique Malonga sat out the matchup. However, Malonga could return soon from concussion protocol, providing a boost as Seattle works on improving a league-worst points per game average.
