Seattle started the season slowly, losing all three of their games in May and their first game in June. They would go on to win three more games in June, but would lose seven more to finish the month with a 4–8 record. The team lost their first eight games in July, and combined with two losses to end June, the Storm were on a ten game losing streak. However, they ended the streak with two wins to end July with a 2–8 record. Their reversal of fortunes continued into August as they won three of their first five games in the month. However, they could not continue the momentum and finished the month losing four of six games. They finished August with a 5–6 overall record. The Storm finished the season on a four game losing streak, losing all four of their games in September. Their seven-year playoff streak was ended on August 27 with a loss to the Chicago Sky. A disappointing season was perhaps expected after the off-season departures of Breanna Stewart and Sue Bird. The team's eleven wins was their lowest total since 2015 and their .275 winning percentage was their lowest since their inaugural season in 2000. Their 29 losses this season was the lowest in franchise history, but it was also the first season of the WNBA's 40 game schedule.
