With this victory, Seattle snapped Minnesota&rsquo;s nine-game winning streak. The Storm secured a crucial home and conference win in Commissioner&rsquo;s Cup action, where they improved to 3-1. <\/p><p>The Minnesota Lynx entered with a 9-0 regular season start which also included a 3-0 Commissioner&rsquo;s Cup mark. The Lynx required one more victory to become only the third team in the WNBA history to take a 10-0 start in the season. However, the streak was halted by the Storm through Offensive rain storm. All five Seattle starters record in double figure and two players dropped 20-point performances. <\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/seattlestorm?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@seattlestorm<\/a> takes down the undefeated Minnesota Lynx &#129327; <br><br>Hard-fought victory led by Nneka Ogwumike (21 PTS) and Erica Wheeler (20 PTS) with a dagger in the final seconds! <br><br>Storm move to 3-1 in Commissioner's Cup play &#127942;<br><br>WNBA Commissioner's Cup presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/coinbase?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@coinbase<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qKqdamcqOj\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/qKqdamcqOj<\/a><\/p>&mdash; WNBA (@WNBA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WNBA\/status\/1933012565514244190?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 12, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mercury-vs-wings-paige-bueckers-makes-wnba-return-with-career-high-performance-dallas-drops-10th-game-of-the-season\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Mercury vs. Wings: Paige Bueckers Makes WNBA Return with Career-High Performance, Dallas Drops 10th Game of the Season<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seattle Storm&rsquo;s Second-Half Surge Hands Over Minnesota Lynx First Defeat of the Season<\/h2><p>Both teams had a toe-to-toe clash in the first half and Lynx held a 49-48 lead at halftime.
