Brittney Sykes, who finished last season with the Storm, had 15 points against her former team and rookie Laura Juskaite scored 14, which included a career-high four 3-pointers, for the Tempo (5-4). Maria Conde added 13 points, the rookie's second consecutive game scoring in double figures. Toronto set an WNBA record when the Tempo made their first 31 free throws before Teonni Key missed back-to-back foul shots with 58 seconds left and they finished 31 of 33 (94%). Katie Lou Samuelson made a short turn-around jumper that tied it at 51-all with 3:50 left in the third quarter, but the Storm committed turnovers on their next three possessions as Toronto sparked a 19-5 run over the next three-plus minutes. Natisha Hiedeman scored 18 points and Jordan Horston added a season-high 15 for Seattle. The Storm hit 7 of 27 (26%) from 3-point range and attempted only eight free throws, making seven. Seattle (3-5) is 3-0 this season when shooting 38% or better from behind the arc, 0-6 when it makes 37% or worse. Dominique Malonga (concussion protocol) missed her sixth consecutive game for Seattle. Toronto beat the Storm 86-73 on May 13, the first win in franchise history.
