Inside the 2026 Seattle Storm active roster
The Seattle Storm have hit the reset button after losing their top five scorers in free agency. General Manager Talisa Rhea cleared the slate this offseason, hiring Sonia Raman as head coach to lead a roster that looks drastically different than the veteran-heavy lineups of years past.
The spotlight now shifts to 20-year-old French center Dominique Malonga, the 2025 No. 2 overall pick, who steps into a full-time starting role. While veteran arrivals like Stefanie Dolson and Natisha Hiedeman provide stability, the Storm’s trajectory hinges on the development of Malonga and the return of defensive anchor Ezi Magbegor.

Top Storm players to watch
As mentioned above, all eyes are on Dominique Malonga. Stepping into a full-time starting role, the 20-year-old center brings elite length, rim protection, and raw offensive potential that will be the focal point of Seattle’s rebuild.
Joining her in the paint, the Storm will lean heavily on the proven two-way dominance of Ezi Magbegor. The frontcourt star anchors the defense, disrupting opponents while delivering dependable rebounding and interior scoring. Rounding out the rotation is Stefanie Dolson, a seasoned center who provides essential size, floor spacing, and steady locker-room leadership for the young core.
