| WNBA Preview: Seattle Storm vs. San Antonio Silver Stars |
The best place to wager on the WNBA is the online sportsbook BetPhoenix. After recording the best start in franchise history last month, the San Antonio Silver Stars are still searching for their first win of July. They might have to wait a little longer with the Seattle Storm coming to town. Looking to snap a season-worst skid, the Silver Stars try to avoid a seventh consecutive defeat to the Storm on Thursday night. San Antonio (7-4), which won four straight and seven of eight to open the season, now finds itself in the midst of three-game losing-streak. After getting swept by New York in a home-and-home set, the Silver Stars fell 84-74 to Los Angeles on Tuesday as Becky Hammon, averaging a team-best 16.3 points, was held to a season-low five on 2-of-14 shooting - including an 0-for-7 effort from 3-point range. “We have to bounce back and get ready for Seattle. We don’t have that much time to fix everything. We need to practice determined and just go to work.” Regrouping against the Storm (7-4), however, could be difficult given San Antonio’s recent efforts in this series. The Silver Stars, who have dropped six straight to Seattle by an average of 13.5 points, lost all four meetings last season as three-time MVP Lauren Jackson averaged 24.5 points on 56.4 percent shooting and 10.0 rebounds. While coach Dan Hughes’ team won’t have to worry about containing the injured Jackson (torn hip labrum), slowing down All-Star point guard Sue Bird could prove to be almost as difficult. Bird, averaging what would be a career-high 16.1 points this season, has been even better recently, scoring 19.3 per game while going 11-of-19 from 3-point range (57.9 percent) over her last four contests. She scored a game-high 22 as the Storm defeated Washington 79-71 on Tuesday - Seattle’s second straight victory and third in four games. “When Lauren is out, other people really have to step up and contribute in the scoring factor,” coach Brian Agler said. “Sue has consistently done that over the years, and she’s doing it now when we need it. “She’s a player who contributes in a lot of different ways, and she makes her teammates better around her, and that’s sort of her strength. But she has the ability to score, too, and that’s why she’s world-class. She can do both.” The Storm, who have scored 77.2 points per game en route to a 5-1 home record, have averaged 10.0 less on the road, where they’ve lost three of five. Seattle and San Antonio, along with Minnesota, sit one game behind first-place Phoenix in the Western Conference. The Stars get a much need win over the Storm and cover the number.
