Storm face Mercury with Loyd’s latest explosion looming
Seattle’s five-game losing streak meets Phoenix’s playoff push as Loyd’s scoring surge tests the Mercury’s resilience in the desert.
The Seattle Storm (5-15, 0-10) head to on Tuesday to face the Mercury (7-13, 4-8) after Jewell Loyd torched the Las Vegas Aces for 24 points in her last outing. Seattle’s season is on the brink; they’re winless in the West and staring at the conference basement with every loss. Phoenix, meanwhile, has clawed back into playoff contention with four wins in their last eight games, but a slip-up against a desperate Storm would stall their momentum.
