The Seattle Storm have won the 2020 WNBA Finals, sweeping the Las Vegas Aces
This is Seattle's fourth championship overall and second in the last three years, previously winning it all in 2004, 2010 and 2018.It was an unprecedented season for the league, which took place in Bradenton, Florida, in what was deemed the"wubble," a play on words for the bubble, because of the Covid-19 pandemic. The season was dedicated to Breonna Taylor and the Say Her Name campaign.
"It's the second WNBA title for forward Breanna Stewart, who missed the 2019 season because of a ruptured Achilles tendon -- and it's the second time she's been named WNBA Finals MVP, also earning the honor in 2018. The 2020 vote for Stewart garnering the honor was unanimous. Stewart finished Game 3 of this series with 26 points, setting a WNBA record by scoring more than 20 points in six consecutive WNBA Finals games.
