The Storm have lost three of four games since the Olympic break — and frustrations boiled over in Monday’s postgame presser.
On paper, a Seattle Storm team headlined by Jewell Loyd, Nneka Ogwumike, Skylar Diggins-Smith, and Ezi Magbegor should be contending for a WNBA championship this season.

Lane Kiffin has social media whipped up into a frenzy after a simple tweet about Ohio State.
The Ole Miss football coach shared an article on X with the headline, “How Ohio State built a $20 million, ‘national championship or bust’ roster.”
