Veronica Burton has been a steady playmaker with 5.4 assists per game along with her 11.1 points and 4 rebounds, while Tiffany Hayes adds scoring punch at 13.5 points per game and hits over 45% from three.
The Storm currently holds the fourth-best record in the league and is pushing its way up the standings, having won three of its last five. They rely on their defense, allowing just 79.0 points per game, among the best in the league. Skylar Diggins-Smith has provided veteran leadership, frequently leading the team in scoring and assists, while Nneka Ogwumike anchors the paint with averages of 18.4 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. Ezi Magbegor contributes 13.6 points and 7.7 rebounds per night, rounding out a balanced frontcourt.
