Storm vs Wings Betting Options, Insights, Forecasts, and Player Stats (May 19)

The Dallas Wings (0-1) and Seattle Storm (0-1) aim to recuperate from their season-opening defeats as they meet on Monday, May 19, at College Park Center in Arlington, TX. The contest tips off at 7:00 pm CT/ 8:00 pm ET, with NBA TV providing the coverage.

Dallas, who concluded last year with the WNBA's worst point differential (-7.9), were routed 99-84 in their home opener by Minnesota Lynx. The Storm, who recently traded Jewell Loyd to Las Vegas, were trounced 81-59 by the Mercury in their initial outing.

Seattle is currently the -155 favorite, providing them with a 60.78% implied win probability, while the Wings return as three-point underdogs at +130 (43.48% implied win probability). The game total sits at 166.5 with odds of -110 each way.

In her WNBA debut, Dallas' top pick Paige Bueckers managed ten points, seven rebounds, and two assists in 29 minutes. However, she struggled with a 3-of-10 shooting performance from the floor and missed both attempts from beyond the arc while having two turnovers. Seattle's lineup, without Loyd since 2015, faces a significant adjustment. They acquired French center Dominique Malonga in the deal but she only played nine minutes in her WNBA debut.

The Dallas roster underwent significant changes in the offseason, as Natasha Howard and Satou Sabally joined other teams. While they brought in DiJonai Carrington and Myisha Hines-Allen, the Wings' defense, notably interior defense, was a major concern in their loss to Minnesota.

In the meantime, Seattle struggled to find their rhythm on offense against the Mercury, finishing the game at 33% shooting from the floor and 18% from three-point range. Despite their troubles, the Storm have historically dominated Dallas, going 4-0 last season, including two wins in Texas.
