UConn in the WNBA: 2022 season preview

The 2022 WNBA season tips off Friday evening, with eight of the twelve teams in action for opening night and the remaining four teams starting their seasons on Saturday. 16 former Huskies are currently on WNBA rosters to start the season.

Seattle Storm: Sue Bird, Breanna Stewart, Gabby Williams

Sue Bird is entering her 20th and final season as the Storm’s point guard. She’ll be alongside former Huskies Breanna Stewart and Gabby Williams, who Seattle acquired in a trade for Katie Lou Samuelson during free agency.

Seattle managed to keep its big three of Bird, Stewart and Jewell Loyd intact during this year’s free agency.
