Flau’jae Johnson and Dominique Malonga provide a preview of the future, but the Storm fall to the Aces 98-77 and set a WNBA record for most losses in a season.
The Storm will be without Awa Fam on Sunday vs. the Sparks. The rookie forward has left to practice with Spain's national team before the FIBA World Cup.
Storm coach Sonia Raman will use the final contests to evaluate the team’s top three post players, who comprise a potentially dominant frontcourt if they get enough time to gel.
Rookie Flau’jae Johnson suffered an apparent foot injury and did not return, and the Storm fell to the Fire 100-93 to match a franchise record with their 11th straight loss.
For the second time this season, and the first in WNBA history, the Storm have a double-digit losing streak following a 92-86 defeat against the New York Liberty.
For the fifth time during their eight game losing streak, the Storm trailed by double-digits in the first quarter en route to a 98-89 loss to the Atlanta Dream.
The Storm said they "respect the league's decision" to fine and suspend co-owner Celeste Keaton in the wake of an incident when she confronted two teenage fans.
