Breanna Stewart ended her six-year career in Seattle on Wednesday when she announced her decision to join the New York Liberty, but she didn't leave without saying 'thank you.'
With Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu and Jonquel Jones, the Liberty has potential to be dominant when the start of WNBA season rolls around in May. The Storm, on the other hand, is left with some holes to fill.
Stewart addressed four-time All-Star Jewel Loyd in her farewell letter, who is currently Seattle’s longest tenured player. "We went from being roommates to throwing unlimited lobs in games to an unstoppable tandem that helped bring this franchise 2 more titles! I'm so grateful to have you in my corner always," she wrote.
The two were a dominant pair together, something Stewart spoke to after a close loss to the Las Vegas Aces last season."We are a duo that's hard to stop. We are both still early in our careers and know how scary we can be on court. You saw that last night," sheThe loss led reporters to ask Loyd about the future of the team."You find players you want to play with. People have seen my game, how Stewie and I play, & I hope they want to be here.
