There hasn’t been much movement yet in WNBA free agency and apparently, the league is waiting for one move to happen before business really starts moving.
The transaction in question is a three-team trade that would involve Jewell Loyd going to the Aces, Kelsey Plum moving to the Sparks and the Storm picking up draft assets, reports the Chicago Sun-Times’ Annie Costabile.
Loyd may have been on her way to the Sky but prefers to play in Las Vegas, Costabile reported earlier. A straight-up trade with Loyd going to the Aces in exchange for Plum to Seattle appears feasible, but the Storm don’t see Plum as a fit in their lineup with Skyler Diggins-Smith.
Seattle reportedly wants a shooting guard or wing in return for Loyd. Meanwhile, the Sparks are viewed as a good destination for Plum, whose experience could help Cameron Brink and Rickea Jackson develop. But if L.A. isn’t willing to deal a young player or the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, the Storm isn’t interested in a trade.
Until that can be figured out, a trade won’t get done and movement on the WNBA free agency market will remain stalled as teams are uncertain how their rosters will look.
