on Wednesday.
The Sky led 86-75 with 6:24 left in the fourth quarter before Seattle went on a
9-0 run, capped by Flau'jae Johnson's 3-pointer to get within two points. But
that's as close as the Storm would get.

her first points of the second half with 26.5 seconds left to give Chicago a
93-88 lead. Natasha Cloud sealed it at the free-throw line.
Chloe Bibby had 14 points in her first appearance of the season for Chicago
(8-16), which led by as many as 14 points in the second half. Cloud had 13
points and six assists, and Gabriela Jaquez scored 10.
Johnson led Seattle (6-20) with 25 points. Dominique Malonga had 16 points and
12 rebounds, and Awa Fam scored 14. The Storm struggled from the free-throw
line, going 14 of 23 (61%).
Seattle's last lead was 10-9 with 5:52 left in the opening frame.
