For all the world’s Olympians & national team athletes who competed vs. athletes from Eastern Bloc countries in the ‘70’s & 80’s, this is a long time coming. Moving & profound.

Six months ago, we celebrated the groundbreaking for the Center for Basketball Performance and in another six months it’s scheduled to open! GO STORM!💛💚
Today we reached a huge milestone and celebrated the workers who made Seattle Storm Center for Basketball Performance a reality! 🎉 Watch as the construction team places the final beam on the building at our topping out ceremony with @SellenConstruct!

Proud of our entire organization. Make no mistake, this is a result of incredible competence, passion, and resilience up and down our entire off-court @seattlestorm staff roster, led by the indomitable @AlishaValavanis
“Investors don’t go off of anecdotes. They go off of [comparables]…So hopefully, we’ve just set the floor. We’ve set a real-live floor. Not just the WNBA, but women’s soccer, women’s hockey, where women’s sports is going.” -Co-Owner @ginnygilder 🔗: https://t.co/Cj2zABaUm5

Surprising, but then, not really. Infuriating for sure. Worth the fight, always!

It is rare for Title IX cases to go to trial. In Hawaii, a looming case could be a landmark stress test for the 50-year-old law.

Thrilled to announce that @seattlestorm joined the @climatepledge–a commitment to net-zero carbon by 2040. This is a big step towards making the Storm as environmentally sustainable as possible & a natural extension of our commitment to lead on the court & off.

Love that @mavoepel is stepping out to live his one, best, authentic life!
In sports media, we're lucky to tell stories of others’ journeys. We have our own, too. Part of mine is being transgender, and I'm transitioning to male. Byline now M.A. Voepel, pronouns he/him. Please feel free to call me Voepel, MV, Michael, Mike; I’m good with them all. 😊…

Hear hear @mPinoe - pro choice grants each person the rightful responsibility to make their own decisions, according to their own values, circumstances, and aspirations. If pro life was what it says, women would not dread the poverty that all too often follows a pregnancy.

I’m with her. Time for us to stop taking no as an answer. @breannastewart speaks truth. #Force4Change

1 day after celebrating 50 years of oppty thru title IX, the supreme ct takes away our right to choose. 1 step forward 2 steps back for women in America. If you think they’ll stop there, you’re naive. This is what happens when you don’t vote like your freedom depends on it.

Times have changed in many ways, and there’s much, much more for us all to do!
"These are the bodies that Yale is exploiting." Storm co-owner @ginnygilder remembers the protest she participated in as a rower at Yale. Watch the full roundtable 👇 https://t.co/sEGrERJCEy

Today marks a memorable moment in our nation’s history. Our @seattlestorm is proof of the progress Title IX has made to secure equality for women, but we are not done yet! We are part of history, and we will continue to build the future we want to see.

Gonna miss ya, @S10Bird when you leave the @seattlestorm court as a player for the last time, but in the meantime, gonna love every minute you’ve got left, knowing there’s so much more you’ll do off the court when that time comes.💛💚 forever!
I’ve decided this will be my final year. I have loved every single minute, and still do, so gonna play my last year, just like this little girl played her first ☺️ #TheFinalYear @seattlestorm
