The Tempo will be without Maria Conde. Temi Fagbenle is questionable with a shoulder injury.

Tempo vs Storm Prediction

The Tempo had their chances to beat the Mystics and I guess that’s enough for oddsmakers. The Storm are also still missing a great deal of their frontcourt depth. However, the Storm has also shown us more through two games, which includes a gutsy road win over the Sun. Flau’jae Johnson has hit the ground running and it looks like Seattle has shooting, which wasn’t the case last season.

Close game or not, the Tempo were awful offensively in their season opener. If the Storm keep hitting shots, Toronto will have to be better. Even on the road, it feels like the wrong team is favored here. I’ll grab the bucket with the Storm.
