Jewell Loyd scored a career-high 39 points, Seattle made 17 three-pointers and the visiting Storm defeated the Dallas Wings 109-103 on Saturday in Arlington, Texas.

Seattle's victory overshadowed a career-high 41-point performance by Arike Ogunbowale of the Wings.

Seattle trailed 75-74 entering the fourth quarter but quickly regained the lead early in the period and led for the final nine minutes. A three-point play by Ogunbowale drew the Wings within one point near the four-minute mark, but in the next minute-and-a-half, Loyd hit a 17-footer, Ezi Magbegor drained a three-pointer and Loyd hit another midrange jumper to keep the Storm out in front. Loyd added a three-pointer and went seven of eight from the foul line to help put the game away in the final two minutes.
