But Plum’s move wasn’t the only splash. WNBA champion Jewell Loyd, who requested a trade at the end of last year, is also on the move, taking Plum’s roster spot in Las Vegas as part of a three-team trade.

In a massive three-team deal, the Seattle Storm are trading Jewell Loyd to the Las Vegas Aces in an agreement that will see star guard Kelsey Plum move to the Los Angeles Sparks, a league source confirmed Sunday.

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.

In the three-team trade, the Storm are also acquiring the No. 2 pick in the 2025 WNBA draft and forward Li Yueru from the Sparks, as well as Las Vegas' 2026 first-round pick, sources told ESPN. Los Angeles receives the 2025 No. 9 pick and a 2026 second-round pick from Seattle. The Aces receive the 2025 No. 13 pick from the Sparks.

The Storm sent six-time All-Star Jewell Loyd to the Aces in a multi-team WNBA trade that shipped three-time All-Star Kelsey Plum to the Sparks, sources told ESPN on Sunday.

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.

The Los Angeles Sparks, Las Vegas Aces and Seattle Storm agreed to a multi-team deal that will see Kelsey Plum head ... Skylar Diggins-Smith, Gabby Williams and Ezi Magbegor.
