Seattle's No. 2 pick has underwhelmed
Seattle Storm No. 2 overall pick Dominique Malonga, a 6-foot-6 center, has struggled, averaging just two points. Only 19, she is the youngest player in the Storm's history. Malonga played in the French professional league starting at age 16.
Malonga has enjoyed success on the big stages, earning a silver medal in the 2024 Paris Olympics with the French national team. She averaged 15 points and 10 rebounds in the French league.Malonga has major hops, perhaps a talent she'll show off later in the season. In her first practice with the Storm, Malonga — still battling jet lag — dunked.
"You had to be there," Storm coach Noelle Quinn said jokingly when asked about it, per ESPN's Kevin Pelton. "She can dunk. She's over the rim. It was powerful. It was athletic. It was good to see."
