Tired legs?

The Storm appears tired, the result of playing just 24 hours earlier in Los Angeles. The Storm did not arrive in town until 10:30 p.m. last night; factor in time to get home, unpack and unwind ... well, you get the idea. The Sun, meanwhile, have been in Seattle since Monday, waiting to play this game. And it shows.

Seattle has scored just five points in the quarter. Oh, one other sign: Sue Bird is in street clothes on the Storm bench, recovering from knee surgery.

With 2:53 to play in the half, Connecticut leads 33-21.
