Instant Takeaways: Storm Trample Mystics in Awa Fam’s Debut

Rookie No. 3 pick Awa Fam made her WNBA debut, and the Seattle Storm carried their momentum from Friday’s win into a 97-85 victory over the Connecticut Sun on Sunday, May 24, at Climate Pledge Arena.

Still without Ezi Magbegor and Dominique Malonga, the Storm finally got the second of their two prized rookie draft pick on the court for the first time. Katie Lou Samuelson also made her season debut, playing her first game for the Storm since 2021.

The final score makes it look closer than it was. This was a game the Storm dominated from the end of the first quarter to the final buzzer, making it by far their best game of the season against a quality opponent.
