Storm Season Begins Tomorrow

From WNBAlien's Seattle Storm preview:

Significant gains: Temeka Johnson, Noelle Quinn, Tianna Hawkins.

Significant losses: Lauren Jackson, Sue Bird, Katie Smith, Ann Wauters (plus Ewelina Kobryn and Svetlana Abrosimova aren’t coming back either). Yeah, ouch.


Jayda Evans checks in with Lauren Jackson:

An Australian native, Storm center Lauren Jackson is already an ocean way. One click on her WNBA team's website made the distance feel farther.

"I saw they were at Stormin' the Lake," Jackson said of photos from the annual meet-and-greet with fans at Green Lake. "I was like, aw, I was on that team a couple of years ago doing the water-balloon toss."


Doug Feinberg (AP writer) checks in with Sue Bird:

Having some free time also means Bird can spend time with her young niece Zoe, who was born in February.

"This has been a bright side," Bird said. "She's 3½-four months. We hang around. Can't do much with her. Basically we both just sit on the couch. It's neat to be around her and watch her grow. She's going to be a guard."
