Malonga becomes youngest WNBA player to have double-double in rout of Sky

CHICAGO (AP) — Skylar Diggins scored 21 points, rookie Dominique Malonga had 14 points and 10 rebounds for her first double-double and the Seattle Storm rode a 56-point second half to a 95-57 rout of the Chicago Sky on Thursday night.

Malonga, the second pick in the 2025 draft, became the youngest player (19 years, 250 days) in WNBA history to reach 100 career points when she finished off a fast break in the second quarter.

The Storm (15-10) led 39-26 at halftime then scored the first eight points of the second half. Their third-quarter advantage was 13-1 before Rachel Banham hit a 3-pointer for Chicago's first field goal of the second half.

The lead reached 28 points when Lexie Brown buried a 3-pointer with less than two minutes remaining in the third and Seattle led 70-43 at the end of the quarter.
