Los Angeles Sparks vs. Seattle Storm: Starting Lineups and Depth Charts | 2024 WNBA Season (June 11)

The Los Angeles Sparks travel to Seattle to take on the Storm on Tuesday, with both sides aiming for a win. The Storm have enjoyed a fantastic season and sit second in the WNBA Western Conference with a 7-4 record. Things haven't been as good for Curt Miller’s side who find themselves second to bottom in the conference.

The Storm suffered their first loss in seven matchups on Sunday and will be hoping to bounce back from the setback. The Sparks, on the other hand, has seen mixed performances but their inability to build on good results and create momentum saw them losing multiple games by narrow margins.

However, the last two games have seen improved form for LA, with an impressive 81-72 beating of the Wings followed by a 96-92 victory against the defending champions Aces. This should allow the Sparks to enter this game full of confidence. Noelle Quinn’s side will not make it easy, however, as the Storm have lost just once in their last five home games.

Los Angeles Sparks vs Seattle Storm: Key clashes

Jewell Loyd, who is averaging 20.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game this season is the highest of any Storm player. The Sparks will need to pay special attention to her.

Apart from Loyd, the Sparks will also have the task of containing the lively and dimensional attack of Skylar Diggins-Smith and Nneka Ogwumike.

For LA, Dearica Hamby may be a key player as she leads the team in almost all stats by averaging 20.4 points, 11.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game. Players like Kia Nurse, Lexie Brown and Cameron Brink will play an important role, too.
