Seattle Storm (W) Team Overview
Seattle Storm appeared to be finding their footing after snapping an 11-game losing streak with back-to-back wins. However, last week’s results suggest that resurgence was short-lived, two more losses have dropped them back to second-to-last in the standings, with the lowest win percentage in the West (22.7%).

⭐ Editor's Pick
The pace of this game is expected to be high, with both teams showing plenty of offensive firepower throughout the season while also allowing their opponents to rack up points. Los Angeles Sparks have conceded over 90 points per game in recent outings, and Seattle Storm’s defense hasn’t looked solid either, surrendering an average of more than 85 points. Given the hosts’ attacking potential and the visitors’ defensive vulnerabilities, this matchup sets the stage for a high-scoring affair with plenty of end-to-end action. Head-to-head, these teams have consistently surpassed the 170-point mark-nine of their last ten meetings have gone over that total. Our editorial team backs the over 169.5 total points bet.No comments
