The recap
Phoenix ran Seattle out of the gym, 90-67, and it was Kahleah Copper putting on an absolute clinic with 30 points. Alyssa Thomas quietly stuffed the stat sheet with a near triple-double, dropping 13 boards and 9 dimes while doing all the dirty work.
Seattle couldn't buy a bucket all night and never had an answer, with rookie Awa Fam's 13 the only thing keeping it from getting uglier. The Storm just took the L and fall to 5-16, while the Mercury ate them up wire to wire.
