On September 6th, in a regular season WNBA game, the Storm lost to the Liberty 70-77 as visitors, failing to secure consecutive wins.
In this game, only three players from the Storm scored in double digits, with the bench contributing a mere 4 points. Despite Smith’s good form, the overall performance was not on par with the Liberty. In the previous game, the Storm relied on a full offensive effort to defeat the Sun, but today they were unable to turn the tide.
Throughout the game, Smith played for 35 minutes and 18 seconds, making 7 out of 19 shots, including 4 out of 7 from beyond the arc, and 3 out of 4 free throws, scoring a game-high 21 points, along with 4 rebounds and 6 assists, adding 2 steals and 2 blocks, but also had 4 turnovers and 2 fouls, ending with a +5 plus-minus rating. Unfortunately, her efforts were in vain. Ogumike shot 4 out of 11 for just 9 points today, while Lloyd made 3 out of 8 for only 6 points. Williams contributed 17 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists, and Magbegor added 13 points and 7 rebounds. However, against a Liberty team where everyone stepped up, the Storm fell short.
