SEATTLE — In her role as team captain/general manager Breanna Stewart orchestrated a trade at the end of the WNBA All-Star selection show that corrected a mistake by the league and is sure to be popular among Storm fans.
After filling out their respective 11-player rosters for the July 10 All-Star Game, Stewart proposed swapping co-captains Sue Bird and Sylvia Fowles, who were originally chosen and assigned teams by the league last week.
Las Vegas forward A'ja Wilson agreed to the deal, which reunites Stewart with Bird and sent Fowles to Team Wilson.
