Storm Look to Snap Out of Post-Olympic Funk, Prevent History from Repeating

A Look at the Storm's Recent Struggles and What They Can Do to Turn Things Around

Recent Struggles

The Seattle Storm have struggled since returning from the Olympic break, going 1-3 in their last four games.

They have been outscored by an average of 10 points per game during that stretch and have shot just 40% from the field.

The Storm's offense has been particularly ineffective, as they have failed to score more than 83 points in any of their last four games.

What They Can Do to Turn Things Around

• Get Breanna Stewart going: Stewart is the Storm's leading scorer and rebounder, and they need her to be at her best in order to be successful.
• Improve their shooting: The Storm are shooting just 40% from the field, which is well below their season average of 46%. They need to improve their shot selection and execution in order to get back on track.
• Play better defense: The Storm have allowed their opponents to score an average of 88 points per game over their last four games. They need to improve their communication and effort on defense in order to turn things around.

Conclusion

The Storm are in a bit of a funk right now, but they have the talent and experience to turn things around.

If they can get Breanna Stewart going, improve their shooting, and play better defense, they should be able to get back on track and make a run in the playoffs.
