SEATTLE (AP) — The Seattle Storm announced Monday morning they signed free agent forward Mackenzie Holmes to their active roster.
Holmes, 24, fills an open spot on the roster that was created on Saturday when center Li Yueru was traded to the Dallas Wings for two future draft picks. Last year, the Storm selected Holmes with the No. 26 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, but she missed the entire season due to knee surgery.
