SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle Storm fans are cheering their team’s second WNBA championship and preparing for a victory parade Friday evening.
Happy fans gathered outside the Storm’s home court of KeyArena after the team beat the Atlanta Dream 87-84 on Thursday night in Atlanta for a three-game sweep in the WNBA finals.
Sue Bird and Lauren Jackson are the only players remaining from the Storm’s 2004 title team.
The team says the Friday evening parade will start at 7 p.m. at the base of the Space Needle at Fourth Avenue North and Broad Street, turn right on Denny and then right on First Avenue North to KeyArena. It will be followed by a free celebration inside the arena.
