Dominique Malonga will lead the Seattle Storm against the Connecticut Sun on Sunday in a meeting between two teams still looking for their first victory. Tipoff is set for 1 p.m. ET on NBCS-BOS and CW Seattle.
Seattle is 0-1, and Connecticut is 0-1, so the game carries an early chance for one side to steady itself before the season moves deeper into May. Malonga enters after scoring 21 points in a 91-80 loss to the Valkyries, a performance that showed she can carry the offense even in defeat.
That makes the storm vs sun matchup more than a routine regular-season date. Both teams need a clean answer after opening losses, and Sunday offers one in front of a national audience on two regional broadcasts.
