Storm All-Decade Team

7:53 PM Thu, Jul 09, 2009 |

The Storm announced the All-Decade team tonight.


The top ten are: Adia Barnes, Tully Bevilaqua, Sue Bird, Janell Burse, Swin Cash, Iziane Castro Marques, Simone Edwards, Lauren Jackson, Betty Lennox and Kamila Vodichkova.


Sue Bird says:

"I'm honored to have been a part of the Storm organization and played in front of the best fans in the WNBA for eight of the team's 10 seasons. The undying support of the Storm's fans has been a constant throughout my career and I will always appreciate their energy and passion. The celebration of the Storm's 10th Anniversary is really about our fans and all that they have done to make women's basketball a Seattle tradition."

Simone Edwards adds:

"You couldn't ask for better fans than those in Seattle. They are incredibly supportive and they want to see you succeed. I remember when we started out our first year, we only won six games but the fans would stay until the end and give us a standing ovation."

From CEO Karen Bryant:

"All players who have worn a Storm jersey have provided us with lasting memories and inspirational moments," said Storm CEO Karen Bryant. "The Storm's 10th Anniversary is really a celebration of the special connection between our players and the fans. We are thrilled to be honoring this accomplished group of outstanding women who have brought so much to our community, both on and off the court, during the past decade."
