Subreddit for the WNBA team of Seattle!

In say… 2025. The middle. Will the season be delayed or canceled? I'm just really curious since I read about it.
Does anyone know where you can apply or how you get a job to be one of the water/ball/towel/floor wiping jobs at the storm games?
I ask because I just bought a yellow Stewie jersey for $20. I was expecting it to be heat pressed like the NBA swingmans and current jerseys but it's the cheap rubbery material. I guess I can't complain for $20 but I'm just a little disappointed and didn't realize it's not the same material as the current jersey. Does anyone know if they hold up or not? I for sure won't be putting it in the dryer.
Hey everyone, some of you may recognize my name on r/wnba.
2 days ago I randomly woke up to find I was perma-banned.
At first I thought I tripped the automod, using the term "jerking off".
Here's the context: https://np.reddit.com/r/wnba/comments/1fzxi47/offseason_basketball_posts_overseas_unrivaled_au/lrd7iab/
Highlights with no intent to start conversation
What does that even mean?
Who's here jerking off to an empty white page. "Yah, no one commented on my post". No one is purposely trying to do that.
I guess it's a slight upgrade from seeing highlights as "low-effort content". Y'all replaced an ambiguous rule with another ambiguous rule.
/End rant
I just want to say, the automod improvements are amazing.
Having your post instantly removed, rather than randomly removed 30 mins later. So much better.
The later was a great way to discourage anyone from making content.
But it seems to be more personal than that. They have completely ghosted me.
When I tried to reach out with an alt. They ip banned all my alts. Shits serious apparently.
Sorry for going off-topic. I didn't know where to post this. As I certainly can't do it on r/wnba anymore lol.
I was at the Vegas game almost a month ago and saw they had a rack of game used jerseys in the team store. I thought they'd be there all year but I guess they move them out once the Kraken play. I'd love to get my hands on an authentic jersey especially since they're hard to find. If they're a couple hundred dollars I'd probably pass but if they have some discounted jerseys of some reserves or players not on the team anymore I'd definitely buy one.
I’ve been looking for Nika and Gabby’s jerseys for a while, but I don’t see anything on the team website. Are there any other sites where I can find legitimate, high-quality jerseys?
She was playing against her Storm teammate Gabby Williams in their overseas league.
The setup for Golden State's expansion draft was released today, and every team can protect up to six players.
Any guesses as to whom the Storm will look to protect? Ezi, Lloyd and SDS are obvious. Horston will probably be a fourth.
As to the other two? I've got no idea, but hopefully Nika Muhl is one of those. I'd love to hear what the sub thinks here on this upcoming choice the Storm will have to make.
I'm not sure when the offseason deadline is but I am anxious to know when moves will be made. Definitely anxious to find out if Gabby re-signs or not.
Hi y'all.
I tried to find new mods for the sub a while ago, but never had any serious inquiries. It seems in the time I have been away from reddit this sub has gotten a lot more active. I want to pass along the sub to some new folks! If you are intrested please send me a message and we can get to know you.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Thanks VC
Anyone watch the exit interviews? They're up on YouTube now. Curious about peoples thoughts.
Some of mine- First, absolutely love Noelle Quinn, she is very aware of her impact on team and franchise culture and is locked in to getting the best from everyone
Nneka-super professional, LOVE her game, could 100% see her coming back specially with Skylar there.
Skylar-she talked about having a large leadership role the entire year, and that her leadership style wasn't to the taste of some teammates. seemed to allude to some locker room conflict. she gave noelle praise, clearly loves playing for her
Gabby-talked about having a home in Seattle, particularly with her role as a dynamic player. She said it's the first team in the W that has made her feel clear and supported in her role. spoke to offense having to become a larger role of hers as the end of season progressed, I'm assuming because jewell's lack of. hope to the basketball gods she comes back, clearly loves to be here
Jewell expressed nothing but excitement about expansion. she spoke to being real and honest with potential new teammates in free agency. I feel really bad she had such an off season, she acknowledged it being the first time she didn't hit her goals for the season.
I didn't know Victoria coaches for Mississippi state, thought that was really cool
Nika's mentality around this season is very admirable
why wasn't mercedes russell there??? she was the only player who didn't participate in interviews and it doesn't seem like she will be doing them at a different time.
Several players spoke to chemistry and more time together is what set Vegas and other higher ranked teams apart from them. I'm looking forward to next year, seems that there will be some changes to the roster but hoping to see a great 2025 season outta Seattle!
Just a reminder, because someone is famous on TV doesn’t mean that they’re not human!
It’s not on reddit much but other social media platforms at the moment are going crazy with the hate about gameplay.
I love our storm and sad to see us not move forward in the playoffs. We had a great season and I’m proud of what we did - we started to really hit something when Gabby came through.
Can’t wait to see what we do next? I’ve got so many favorites I don’t wanna see big changes in the team but am willing to acknowledge that something’s gotta change for us to get better results.
What do you think? Predictions? Favorite moments? Do you know whose contract is up?
I think the biggest issue that we have apart from our iffy offense is the aces defense (which without a doubt is always great). The main problem is that they’re double and triple teaming anyone who has the ball in the paint and the players on perimeter just stand there. which was also the reason the we only had 2 points in the 4th quarter a couple days ago.
The most recent possession, Nneka had the ball and was getting guarded at least 2 people and got trapped. Nobody on the perimeter even budged to help Nneka. Jordan was right there and the defender was not even on her yet she just stood there. I’m not saying this is anyone’s fault but movement is literally all of what offense is and we have no movement
I was wondering what the ideal player would be that seattle could benefit from (from the draft). I think we could benefit from another center.
ezi is back for game 2 I wonder if we’ll force a game 3 or it’ll be an easy sweep for vegas
This is more basic.
I feel like this subreddit needs an avatar. I saw these on the internet and think they would give this place an identity.
I mean just historically bad 3p shooting all year. That they won as many games as they did is a testament to their D, which apparently doesn't work against the MVP for an entire game but just wow. Something here has to change. Jewel Lloyd at 27% 3p and 40% 2p has to be better. The inefficient shooting is not sustainable for any club with championship aspirations. My 2cent
Alright anyone know anywhere in Seattle that will be streaming the game Tuesday (sports bar, etc)
It’s times like these I wish the sports bra opened a second location in Seattle
Can’t find any news about why Sami Whitcomb wasn’t playing tonight. Anybody know what’s up?
Noelle really needs to prioritize the bench early in the game so the starters can be well for the fourth. Sky, Gabby and Nneka were definitely too fatigued for the fourth and even the third quarter. i don’t blame them for throwing out the fourth because they most likely didn’t have it in them! Let’s hope the next two games the bench shows out.
💩 the bed!! I understand cold streaks happen but damn that was epic, and not in a good way
