Skylar Diggins-Smith, a six-time All-Star and former All-WNBA first teamer, has found a new home with the Seattle Storm after sitting out last season. Joining forces with WNBA scoring champion Jewell Loyd, former MVP Nneka Ogwumike, and rising star Ezi Magbegor, Diggins-Smith brings her impressive stats of 19.7 points, 5.5 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game from her time with the Phoenix Mercury.
The Storm, under the leadership of fourth-year coach Noelle Quinn, see Diggins-Smith as a valuable addition due to her two-way play style, excelling both offensively and defensively. Ogwumike, a seasoned player with 12 pro seasons under her belt, brings her scoring and rebounding prowess to the Storm after a successful tenure with the Los Angeles Sparks.
