Mandatory Credit: John E. Sokolowski-Imagn Images The Toronto Tempo will be out for a repeat win against the visiting Seattle Storm on Saturday afternoon.
The expansion Tempo defeated the visiting Storm 86-73 on May 13 for the first victory in franchise history.
Toronto (4-4) is coming off Wednesday’s 111-104 road win over the Chicago Sky that snapped a two-game skid.
Seattle (3-5) had a two-game winning streak halted Wednesday with a 78-64 loss to the Washington Mystics.
In their win at Chicago, the Tempo had a career-best 29 points from Nyara Sabally, who also had six rebounds, two steals and two blocked shots.
“This is really not surprising to me,” said teammate Marina Mabrey, who had 24 points and seven assists. “(Sabally) is a really good player and can read the game really well and is super smart.”
“She is an important player for us,” coach Sandy Brondello said about Sabally.
Brittney Sykes added 20 points for the Tempo, who shot 56.1% (37 of 66), including 46.2% (12 of 26) from 3-point range.
The Storm trailed 48-29 by halftime against the Mystics and could not recover despite a 19-12 fourth-quarter edge.
Jade Melbourne led Seattle scorers with 15 points.
The Storm shot only 34.9% (22 of 63) from the field and 21.7% (5 of 23) from beyond the arc.
“We won’t turn the page,” Storm coach Sonia Raman said. “We’re never going to turn the page on any game. We want to make sure that, win or lose, we learn and we grow. We’ll go back. We’ll watch film. We’ll process it and then make the adjustments we need to make because some of the things that happened today are things that we want to be better at going forward, no matter who we play.”
In the first meeting against the Storm, the Tempo were led by Mabrey’s 26 points on 6-for-11 shooting from 3-point distance. She also had four rebounds, three assists and four steals.
“(Mabrey) makes all these 3s, but it’s how she creates for her teammates, too,” Brondello said.
Sykes added 18 points and eight rebounds against Seattle.
Dominique Malonga scored 21 points to lead the Storm in their first visit to Toronto. She did not play because of concussion protocol on Wednesday.

French Open doubles match ends after sign causes injury

Mandatory Credit: Matthias Hauer/GEPA via Imagn Images A French Open women’s doubles match ended Friday when a player tripped over an advertising sign near the baseline and crashed into a wall.
Turkey’s Zeynep Sonmez, 24, sustained a leg injury on the incident at Court Six at Roland Garros in Paris.
Sonmez was chasing down a lob in the first set when she collided with a sign near the court boundary and lost her balance before falling headlong into the wall. She visibly was shaken and appeared to be in considerable pain as the medical staff responded immediately.

With Sonmez unable to continue, the second-round match ended after just 17 minutes with Sonmez and Germany’s Tatjana Maria trailing 2-0 against Ukrainians Dayana Yastremska and Anhelina Kalinina.
Sonmez lost her first-round singles match earlier this week 6-4, 6-4 against Australia’s Daria Kasatkina.
Sonmez is ranked No. 66 in the world and owns one singles title on the WTA Tour, prevailing at Mexico’s Merida Open in October 2024.

Mandatory Credit: Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images The Minnesota Twins placed left-hander Kendry Rojas on the 15-day injured list on Friday, one day after he was scratched from his scheduled start due to inflammation in his pitching elbow.
The move is retroactive to Tuesday.
Rojas, 23, is 1-0 with a 1.26 ERA in five games (one start) since making his major league debut on April 22.
Also on Friday, the Twins returned right-hander Cody Laweryson from his rehab assignment and reinstated him from the 15-day injured list and recalled left-hander Kody Funderburk from Triple-A St. Paul.
Minnesota also optioned right-hander Travis Adams to St. Paul after Thursday’s 6-2 loss to the host Chicago White Sox.
Laweryson, 28, has a 4.26 ERA and one save without a decision in five relief appearances with the Twins. He has missed the team’s last 45 games due to a right forearm strain.
Funderburk, 29, went 1-1 with one save and a 2.81 ERA in 19 games (no starts) for the Twins prior to being optioned to the Saints on May 10.
Adams, 26, is 1-0 with one save and a 7.20 ERA in seven relief appearances this season with Minnesota.
