WNBA free agency: Storm sign former MVP Nneka Ogwumike in latest move of stellar offseason
The Storm also signed Skylar Diggins-Smith earlier this month
By Jack Maloney • 2 min readThe Seattle Storm have agreed to a deal with former WNBA MVP Nneka Ogwumike, one of the best free agents left on the board, the team announced on Monday. Terms of the contract were not officially disclosed.
"Nneka is one of the most impactful players in the history of our league, not only her achievements on the court but also as an agent of positive change across the WNBA," Storm general manager Talisa Rhea stated in a press release. "I know Seattle and our community share our enthusiasm that Nneka is coming to the Storm."
Ogwumike is the latest key addition for the Storm, who are having a stellar offseason. Earlier this month they traded Kia Nurse and the No. 4 overall pick to the Los Angeles Sparks to clear cap space and used some of it to sign six-time All-Star Skylar Diggins-Smith. Now, they've added Ogwumike to the mix and have a true big three with those two and Jewell Loyd.
The Storm were a perennial contender in the late 2010s and early 2020s, but took a major step back last season following the departures of Sue Bird (retirement) and Breanna Stewart (free agency). They finished with the second-worst record in the league at 11-29 and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2015.
