Beginning:

June 7, 1999:
The WNBA selects four expansion teams to begin play in the 2000 season. Seattle is one of four teams chosen, bringing the league to 16 teams. The league calls for Seattle to secure 5,500 season ticket pledges by October 15, 1999.

Simone Edwards:

Edwards was drafted as a developmental player by the New York Liberty in 1997, but never saw a game until signing on with the newly inaugurated Storm in 2000. She was the only player to be a part of the team for every game of its first six seasons, and became a Key Arena fan favorite for her ebullient personality and cheerleading when not in the game.
