The WNBA began their free agency period with a bang this past weekend headlined by a blockbuster three-team trade featuring two U.S. Olympians.

With Jewell Loyd requesting a trade, there's an an entirely plausible scenario that could return Kelsey Plum to Seattle and into the Storm's lineup for next season.

The Los Angeles Sparks, Las Vegas Aces and Seattle Storm agreed to a multi-team deal that will see Kelsey Plum head to Southern California and Jewell Loyd to Sin City, ESPN's Shams Charania, Ramona Shelburne, Kendra Andrews and Alexa Philippou reported Sunday, citing league sources.

Two-time WNBA champion Kelsey Plum is headed to the Los Angeles Sparks in a massive three-team trade that shook hoops fans on Sunday night. Also part of the deal is Jewell Loyd, — who is getting her wish after requesting a trade from the Seattle Storm — as the two-time WNBA champion in her own right is on her way to the Las Vegas Aces.

Also, the Aces received the No. 13 pick in the 2025 draft from Los Angeles; the Sparks received the No. 9 pick and a 2026 second-round pick from Seattle; and the Storm will receive the Aces' 2026 first-round pick.

After their blockbuster trade for Jewell Loyd, the Aces are looking to retain proven talent and add more, including a possible target in Atlanta.

Teams have been allowed to negotiate with free agents since Jan. 21, but nothing can be officially signed until Feb. 1
