Seattle Storm: A Force to be Reckoned With

The WNBA is set to make a comeback in 2023 for its 27th year, boasting its biggest season yet with a 40-game regular season that spans over a five-month period.

The Seattle Storm will begin their season on May 20 at home, facing off against the current league champion – Las Vegas, in a highly anticipated rematch from last season’s WNBA semifinal.

With a promising start to the season, Seattle will have a three-game homestand advantage and will play six of its first seven games at the Climate Pledge Arena, where it achieved an impressive 13-5 record last season, tying for the second-best home record in the league. Furthermore, the early stretch of the season will grant the Storm a favorable schedule with 11 of its first 16 games to be played at home.

When it comes to achieving success that will benefit the franchise as a whole, each player on the roster has their unique approach. To begin with, let’s talk about Jewell Loyd.

Loyd is an exceptional basketball player whose effortless style seamlessly blends with Bird and Stewie. Her laid-back attitude has contributed significantly to the franchise’s recent prosperity. However, the 2023 season will require Loyd to be more assertive. She is now undoubtedly the team’s star with the retirement of Sue Bird and the departure of Breanna Stewart

Before Seattle can achieve success, they will need to take a few sidesteps and realign itself. However, if they can decipher all their uncertainties, they will be able to face any challenge head-on. It’s difficult to predict the team’s record for the season as they’re focusing on their own internal objectives. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the team or simply looking for a thrilling WNBA season, the Seattle Storm and Climate Pledge Arena will not disappoint.
