Key Storylines
Seattle Storm (7–5, 3–3 road)
Offensive rhythm: Averaging ~89.5 PPG (2nd in WNBA), shooting 47.3% FG and 37.7% from deep, with 29 assists and forcing 22 turnovers in their last blowout.
Skylar Diggins & Nneka Ogwumike lead the charge, combining for nearly 35 PPG and strong interior presence.
Defensive tenacity: Giving up about 78 PPG, they’re top-6 in defensive rating—anchored by Ogwumike, Magbegor, Williams, and Clark.
Role players stepping up: Gabby Williams has been impactful defensively, and Ezi Magbegor provides stability in the paint.
Las Vegas Aces (5–6, 3–2 home)
Inconsistent stretch: The defending champs are just 1–4 in their last five outings, struggling offensively (79 PPG, 38.7% FG) and defensively (allowing 82.5 PPG).
A’ja Wilson’s status in doubt, after missing three straight with concussion protocol—if she’s out again, Vegas faces a steep uphill climb.
Support cast lacking spark: Without Megan Gustafson, Cheyenne Parker-Tyus sidelined, and Kelsey Plum gone, Jackie Young and Jewell Loyd have tried to fill the void with mixed results.
Home rhythm? They’re 3–2 at home and split head-to-heads with Seattle this season—winning one at home, losing one in Seattle.

Storm vs. Aces Prediction
Seattle looks more balanced and in better form, especially if Wilson remains out or limited. Vegas will lean on home court, but their cold streak and lack of offensive depth make this a tough game. The best bet, however, is the over. These two teams should put on a show offensively…or struggle defensively.
Storm vs. Aces Prediction: OVER 164.5
