A complete look back at the biggest moments, dates and games in Storm franchise history.
Lauren Jackson won her second MVP, but the Storm was never able to find a consistent rhythm in a 17-17 season that culminated in a first-round sweep by Phoenix, the Storm's third straight exit in the opening round.
With Lauren Jackson limited by her shins and Shaunzinski Gortman and Wendy Palmer suffering season-ending injuries, the Storm's lack of depth cost them in a season that ended with a narrow Game 3 loss at Los Angeles.
Despite losing three key players to free agency, the Storm won 20 games for the second straight season before the season ended in disappointment with consecutive losses to Houston at KeyArena in the First Round of the playoffs.
In the franchise's fifth year of existence, the Storm broke through and won the WNBA Championship in three games over the Connecticut Sun, the city of Seattle's first professional championship in 25 years.
During her third season, Storm forward Lauren Jackson emerged as the WNBA's best player and its MVP, but with Sue Bird fighting a knee injury and Adia Barnes and Kamila Vodichkova sidelined, the Storm fell short of the playoffs in Anne Donovan's first season as coach.
With the top overall pick for the second straight season, the Storm added UConn point guard Sue Bird. With Bird earning All-WNBA First Team honors as a rookie, the Storm advanced to the playoffs for the first time, falling in two games to the L.A. Sparks.
The Storm's sophomore season was about rookies. With the first pick of the Draft, the Storm picked Australia's Lauren Jackson. She and second-round pick Semeka Randall were the team's leading scorers as the Storm improved to 10 wins.
The year it all began. With a veteran backcourt of Sonja Henning and Edna Campbell and rookies Simone Edwards and Kamila Vodichkova up front, the Storm's first season saw the team win six games.
With the guidance of Ginger Ackerley, Karen Bryant and Coach Lin Dunn, the WNBA came to Seattle for the 2000 season as part of a four-team expansion. Here's the story of how the Storm came into existence.
