The Storm van Seattle today announced that they have signed Mackenzie Holmes, a talented center that spent a training camp with the team but was abandoned last month.
Holmes was prepared by the storm in the third round of 2024 Wnba Design and missed the following season after a knee operation. She made her debut in Seattle in a pre -season match, in which she got 9 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks. It was the only pre -season match that Seattle participated in the past season.
Before she was prepared, Holmes had a striking career at the University of Indiana, where she ended her career as the most important scorer of all time (2,530), made field goals (1,043), field target percentage (63.9) and wins (123). She earned 8 all-American selections in five years as a hoosier, and earned unanimous all-big ten first team, All-Big in the defensive team, USWBA and AP All-American Selections.
Mackenzie Holmes returns to Seattle after he had previously been abandoned
On May 12, the storm announced that they had abandoned Holmes next to Brianna Fraser and Serena Sundell. But on Saturday the storm gave Li Yueru’s request to be traded and therefore opened an extra place in their selection. On 6’3, Holmes does not have Yueru’s height completely, but she helps to strengthen the vanguard of the storm and can be a reliable scorer around the edge.
Holmes is the newest player who again signed with a team that abandoned last month; On Sunday, the Golden State Valkyries announced that they are Chloe Bibby and Kaitlyn ChenBoth were on their training camp schedule. Many teams in the WNBA sign temporary players in the aftermath of their players who go abroad to participate in Eurobasket, but Holmes could cure a place in the longer term in the team, given the permanent departure of Yueru.
