The start of the highly anticipated semifinals matchup between Minnesota and Seattle finally tipped off on Tuesday after being delayed on Sunday due to inconclusive COVID tests. While we had to wait an extra 48 hours for the best of five series to commence, the pushed-back game did not disappoint.
Game one was entertaining, and fast paced as both teams executed efficiently on both ends of the floor. It was tightly-contested throughout the evening and the victor was decided at the buzzer. With the game tied at 86, and only 14 seconds remaining, the Storm’s Sami Whitcomb drove into the lane and missed a layup.
