pass this has got to go down oh too red hot a shooter lately not to start gets it strip put back there ice cold or the Connecticut Sun thus far Year's team that went to the finals so she but it's tough when you have more than SE long number two in the D completely leaving to head to the other other Harris the pull up jump shot by E he trying to get a second driving by E and as well as Kia nurse and Carrington she goes the onew to the r and another illegal screen off Harris and we got a win after playing eight excellent minutes of immediately took accountability Harris their territory oh easy as you play when they don't they're 2 and 18 indicated who's going to win the back things a little bit Connecticut she can't get it to go lot of Link all the defense you did before Seattle's got him at under 40% times Connecticut relies on their defense so's got five points three rebounds and two assists anytime she's in the key she's big you're trying to take away Dan Bonner and pull up from 16 in and out Foria she's a great quick release but just 10 of 41 here's Harris with it how about an injured ankle three that two Sammy Wickam is now hit Kon throw here's witam again same spot main reasons why they've won three of four expectation to win in Seattle always to help your own player out she just took it other way is Tai Harris good hust a little loose with the basketball right now no qu thas pushes off field goals 100% continues watch how aggressive Connecticut nice job by every once in a while you just Harington Extra Touch pass to the gain their confidence don't give them really attractive basketball and that's the quick touch passing turn over on Seattle there three on the way the Lefty hay reacts moving the ball all around hide him in the onew Lay It Up timeout with 350 left the turnovers now is 17 everywhere right now hommes for the water I think she clearly saw but the bounce pass to Thomas in this game Alissa minus 7 rebounds and here's Joiner Hol there Gabby Williams got into the key was five of seven from Deep tough shot honor flips it up no join drives in and screens and if she's in the corner it's even that's something Noel Quinn if she was Ander giving the [Music] [Applause] team J good drive to the ring came down and grab wild a 14-point game 44 first here I think if they're going to come back drives in and gets fouled so and got to make him in the first quarter moner out of the other Corner two to three cuz she's so deadly she can do it with her eyes closed Conta that's just the progression right oh doy jumps out and we 20 or a full full pressure team to set good screens boner a first half de what's also been tough is Gabby Williams leaving the game right off the top of offense setting had the pick there now she's out of position and by E magor guarded by AI quick TRS Douce and hopefully they don't that doesn't deter them foren Sammy she can hit this wall by Whit J our side carington gets storm get it inside Anytime here's Kean Ur catch and shoot two no good tip to right hi maybe a makeup call as he spins and fire shot is called as a foul as well seen a lot of comebacks this year by the storm 16 14 she's number one in boards she's number maybe there at least she ties juel juel Lloyd that's tough and now I don't even know what position Thomas plays Walking Away in this one about Sammy Wickham she has been Seattle is nearly he's been out there not a that sense of urgency when things aren't going right when you're flings it up from three that fo cuz the entire defense has to is incredibly tiring and exhausting Sammy the one two gets it up he one two floats in is creating turnovers better def foul trouble boner right now Thomas going to bring it up against Carrington splits the D so see if Seattle beach carington again another up brings to Sammy great look at uneven unbalanced wh it right heiderman nice defense by Sam hman Fades away ball tied up juwes got it hold on and now gives it off Thomas with the right juwel catch and shoot a tough one her look out she's been in Fuego save those timeouts they only have two to slate into the game and making left Lloyd shot block from think that's also third Thomas and the rookie no better match up really than she went revers there and a bucket it was going off of going good tipped around keeps it her way to run the floor Rebecca Allen here's melin the onew used to just wanting to straight line drive by the end of this quarter can they get the stop here's Lloyd with it tough shot turned immediately to Thomas inside Allen so you have to be close to her juwel with four on the shot clock no they've seen enough of this team this third quarter Seattle went on a 12 three nurse with it flips it up with the right hand picks it up to nurse hey drives in right to the window and that's what so that you avoid the shot blockers seeks it oh step through by hon tough you're aggressive like she just was sometimes forcing it in no and right now so we'll see what they do another foul on Seattle trying to take the right shot it's just for everything that's got you there the low block good move on Nelson match up for Seattle shot clock got to fling it up and up and in my goodness Z toes up the line in there's been a she's got a good look one high [Music] Pace in Seattle like pretty much all the time all the time like w the storm AR playing well Storm every day and how they're growing and watching this team overseas in France when she blow out a lot of teams but fourth quarter and just things go wrong in on e oh look happen in the first half these live ball turn up hon using her strength left to go in regulation positive she's trying to make this team better MC y w head Bank was awarded best big bank first of three games in 5 days for and three games after starting a good chunk hard situation to start games with Sammy pull up jump shot from 8000 Seattle averaging yeah and cool to see Seattle tires no Brianna and Harris with positive memories seeing team continuation of adults now that if it works if it works tiaris with it Insight check that and with Joiner Holmes in there she's still continuing to Jo Holmes good rebound by meniu that's off fan cam Nadu puts it up to go but Hon's got oh lot of body there [Applause] yeah hman with step back Turner has scored right after this our final Connecticut 8 but off in against Dan boner Connecticut 2 and0 so explosive you saw her just get right out in that front of that passing Lane and like we talked turnovers averaging 22 and A2 points off turnovers in the storm firstam Williams she faces up six on the shot clock as he's got it only 11 of 56 from three in her last eight games so the Connecticut Sun struggle here's eie with it Bonner in their losses she's two of eight one for four two of five Thomas has it on the elbow hands off Tiffany Hayes kicks it 44 after the win against Phoenix on Sunday double clutching back and the more minutes she's been getting the more the Storm win we four and Gabby brings everything to the table defense rebounding scoring is good by Rebecca Allen on the week side Connecticut Sun defense they trap so aggressively Gabby cross over step through now kick back back out to Wild three but it does catch iron tipped around right to e put it for E to put it away he's an awkward looking release there just lot more often and we're seeing that posting up as Dy good move for The Rook games she does everything Sammy said that she comes in she just outworks [Music] [Applause] everybody Thomas flips it up Thomas kick back Allen she's a knock down we got a couple Aussies at shooting guard today that can knock it down into eie Gabby oo behind the back dribble gets poke ID himman Allen the trailer again to get bouncy I mean the reaction speed reading the defense to see if it's a three or a two but right now they're giving it a three it's a one point oneon-one Thomas oh good back cut perimeter Allen drives in tough shot with a right hand and a little take advantage inside just look at the base of go Slimmer danana boner DV is athletic but she has given up some every pound of Dy is good weight here's Gabby overseas she couldn't play P five for 6 weeks Allan trying to stay H it's coming long here's juel she's been quiet thus far but a nice feus lead of the game thus far really fun to see that D Carrington into the game for the first time and Tom goals they are sharing the basketball every single player that has had 33 out of the 79 points in the first loss to Connecticut the double when she gets off a screen they're focused on her another offensive rebound for Seattle that is five on as he kick out oh extra pass this has got to go down oh sami's been too red hot a shooter lately not to start going to go Coast to Coast he gets a strip put back there he comes out on her no good ice cold or the Connecticut Sun thus far remain from last year's team that went to the finals so she that we on that championship team but it's tough when you have more than more she's been doing that all season long number two in the D E he to get that block she was immediately leaving to head to the other other end kick back into the corner Harris the pull up jump shot by wide open Lane as he trying to get a second carington driving by Ai and first time we've seen the rookie today as well as Kean nurseing among all rookies strip right away by Carrington she goes the onew to the r basketball of her season right now and another illegal scream Thomas with it gives it off Harris and we got a wi Seattle really in the last couple minutes after playing eight excellent minutes of no lead by one and juel knows it immediately took accountability really making it their territory oh easy as you play they're five and two when they don't they're 2 and 18 the first quarter has just indicated who's going to win the B but uh that last shot changed things a little bit Connecticut Bass the right hand no offensive rebound Thomas she can't get it to go lot of link that was several in a row you're undoing all the defense you did before and three on the season well Seattle's got him at under 40% don't shoot 40% and a lot of times Connecticut relies on their defense so they're quietly you don't think she's had a big game she's got five points three rebounds and two assist nobody else and you look at her body type anytime she's in the key she's big and you're actually okay with it I think if you're Noel Quinn you're trying to take away Dan Bonner and the corner hey has got it pull up from 16 in and out first look but the three is open for Kia and she's a great quick release start to get it rolling a little bit but just 10 of 41 here's Harris with it to wor for the where gives it off to eie how about an injured ankle three that rebound cuz she's going for all the rebounds right now too Sammy Wickam is now hit Caren throw 24 here's whitcom again same spot valuable to this starting lineup and one of the main reasons why they've won three or four building year with New York Liberty but there's an expectation to win in Seattle always underneath the defender to help your own player out she just took it and loses handle the basketball coming the other way is tight Harris good hust drible loses handle had a little loose with the basketball right now of a a shaky possession no Quinn dar with it out of Thomas pushes off assists and 11 made field goals 100% if the sharing of the basketball [Applause] continues just watch how aggressive connectic I I don't know about that nice job by high pitch screen from the every once in a while you just away Bullet Pass to Carrington Extra Touch pass to De in transition that's where the sun gain their confidence don't give them combin for four and yet it's been really attractive basketball has not been so not not at all and that's the quick touch passing well and they know how to pass in the WNBA turn over on Seattle there with it driving in kick out three on the way the Lefty hay want to forcing the storm to react moving the ball all around boy Seattle backto back turnovers hide him in the onew Lay It Up turnover and Noel will call a timeout with 350 left the scoring Gap on points off turnovers now is 17 that's Gabby Williams they are trapping everywhere right now Holmes for Stephanie white smells blood in the water I think she clearly saw blocked by Jer Holmes but the bounce pass to Thomas that's with three fouls she's a plus five in this game Alissa minus such an impact player she was gobbling up rebounds and here's joyer holes here in the last 3 minutes and they got in the key there Gabby Williams got into the key earlier this season a sun record and she was 5 of seven for tough shot three shots today by the way here's Bonner flips it up no join rolling drives in want to screen at that point because they're doubling those screens and if she's in the corner it's even turnover they live ball turn yeah and that's something no Quin she was you're giving up your own opportunity to score and you're giving the team out pretty [Applause] clean jeta good drive to the ring take a look at what happened there came down and grabb that seems wild so the technical free throw makes it a 14-point game 44 one of her patented double digit scoring Quarters here I think if they're going to come back L spin move by Wickham drives in and gets fouled so anything about it she's defenseless as heidman and got to make him excellent for Seattle they LED in the first quarter Thomas with it boner out of the other Corner You' rather have her blow past than shoot a three cuz she's so deadly from the touch I mean that's like she can do it with her eyes closed 15 ft from the basket with contact that's just the progression right oh Sammy all over hideing duli jumps out and we a side out we're going to take a quick 20 or a full full there is an emphasis against a great pressure team to set good screens to take a really important player out of the game that way boner a first half de
