BRADENTON, Fla. – Breanna Stewart scored 21 points, Alysha Clark had 15 points and seven rebounds and the Seattle Storm beat the Dallas Wings 83-65 on Friday night for their seventh consecutive victory.

Jewell Loyd added 12 points for Seattle (9-1), and Sue Bird had seven points and five assists in 21 minutes. Stewart scored 20-plus for the fifth time this season, shooting 9 of 12 from the field.

Seattle made three 3-pointers in the opening 6-plus minutes of the game for a 23-10 lead and it remained a 13-point advantage at halftime.
