    For the second time in three days, the Seattle Storm hosted the Chicago Sky. Together, the teams boast five players who once represented Notre Dame. The Storm won the third and final matchup between the teams for the regular season, 84-71.

    The Storm’s Jewell Loyd led the former Irish players with 20 points despite shooting only 6-of-20 from the field. Skylar Diggins-Smith, Loyd’s fellow starting guard, scored 15 points and led all players with eight assists.

    For the Sky, Marina Mabrey and Lindsay Allen tied for the team lead with six assists apiece. Mabrey scored 14 points but had a game-high four turnovers. Allen made a single basket on two field-goal attempts.

    Brianna turner, who played on her 28th birthday when these teams met the other night, was left on the bench for the third time in four games.

    This game also was notable for Angel Reese recording her WNBA-record 13th straight double-double, breaking a record previously held by Candace Parker. We’ll see if she can wrestle Rookie of the Year honors away from Caitlin Clark.
