The Seattle Storm (2-4) host the Washington Mystics (2-2) in a WNBA 2026 matchup on Sunday, May 24, at Climate Pledge Arena.
Despite carrying a 2-4 record, Seattle heads into this matchup on a relative high after snapping a three-game skid. The Storm closed out a home back-to-back series against the Connecticut Sun on a strong note, pulling away with a 77-59 victory.
Zia Cooke topscored with 25 points off the bench, including a 9-10 clip from the free throw line. Flau'jae Johnson stuffed the stat sheet with 17 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 blocks.
What's more promising for the Storm in that game was their defense, which held the Sun to only 37.1% from the field. The Storm is actually doing well on that end of the floor, ranking 5th in the league in defensive rating (103.2).
Meanwhile, the Mystics are coming off their worst performance of the season, losing to the Dallas Wings, 92-69. Their offense sputtered right from the get-go, only scoring nine points in the first quarter.
Still, the Mystics have a promising core of Sonia Citron, Shakira Austin, and Kiki Iriafen. They just have to improve their offense as a team, as they rank 13th in the league in offensive rating (100.9).
