Lexie Brown - WNBA News, Rumors, & Updates

Doesn't play Thursday Brown didn't play in Thursday's 74-73 Game 3 loss to the Aces.

Impact Brown played seven minutes during Sunday's Game 1 against the Aces, but she didn't take the court in either of the final two matchups in the first-round series. The 30-year-old was available for most of the 2025 campaign after missing the majority of the last two seasons due to Crohn's disease, but she had limited production with the Storm, averaging just 2.1 points and 1.0 assists in 9.5 minutes per game while coming off the bench in all 24 regular-season appearances. She'll remain under contract with Seattle in 2026 but could have some trouble carving out a fantasy-relevant role.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Gets on board with two points Brown finished Tuesday's 95-75 loss to Indiana with two points (1-1 FG), three assists and one steal in six minutes.

Impact Brown has found the playing time hard to come by this season with the Storm. She made her only field-goal attempt, and her three assists were actually a season high. Brown is good for 3.5 points, 2.5 assists and 1.0 rebound per game in the past two outings while averaging 9.0 minutes per contest.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Available Sunday Brown (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Sparks, Roberta F. Rodrigues of Beta Basket reports.

Impact Brown will shed her probable tag due to an illness and suit up Sunday. However, the 30-year-old guard isn't guaranteed significant playing time, as she didn't see the floor in Friday's loss to the Aces and has logged just 13 total minutes in her last two appearances.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

Probable to play Sunday Brown is probable to play Sunday against the Sparks due to an illness, Circling Seattle Sports reports.

Impact Brown didn't play in the 90-86 loss to the Aces on Friday, and she's failed to reach the 20-minute mark in each of her previous six outings off the bench. Even though the probable tag suggests she might be available Sunday, her chances of making a big fantasy impact are slim.

AUGUST 9 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient off bench Brown posted five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound and three assists over 13 minutes during Friday's 108-106 loss to the Sparks.

Impact Brown missed only one field goal, as she continues to be efficient in limited time in the second unit. In 19 appearances this season, she's averaging 2.3 points across 10.0 minutes per game.

AUGUST 2 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 12 in 16 minutes Brown recorded 12 points (5-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two assists and two steals in 16 minutes during Thursday's 95-57 win over the Sky.

Impact The Storm blew out the Sky on Thursday, allowing Brown to feast in garbage time. Therefore, fantasy managers shouldn't overreact to this outlier performance from Brown, as she's averaging 8.8 minutes per contest this season.

Plays well off bench Brown finished Wednesday's 67-58 win over the Valkyries with seven points (2-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes.

Impact Brown saw her second largest workload of the season and responded with her best scoring performance of the campaign. Brown had played a combined 16 minutes in her previous four games, but she's worth monitoring in case she's able to build some momentum from this.

JULY 14 • Associated Press

Available Friday Brown (illness) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Sun, Christian B of Fearless SC reports.

Impact After missing Wednesday's game against the Sun due to an illness, Brown will return to the floor Friday. The veteran guard has had a limited role during her first season with Seattle, playing only 7.1 minutes per game.

JULY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable with illness Brown (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Sun, Christan Braswell of Circling Seattle Sports reports.

Impact After missing Wednesday's meeting with Connecticut, Brown remains iffy to suit up Friday. Her status should be revealed closer to tipoff. The likes of Tiffany Mitchell and Zia Cooke should have clearer pathways to playing time if Brown remains sidelined.

JULY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Wednesday Brown (illness) won't play Wednesday against the Sun, according to Christan Braswell of Circling Seattle Sports.

Impact Brown was a late addition to the injury report, presumably after waking up under the weather. The guard has played a minimal role for the Storm with an average of 7.1 minutes per night.

JULY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Not on injury report Brown (illness) will be available for Thursday's game against the Dream, Kevin Pelton of ESPN reports.

Impact After three straight games on the shelf, Brown is back to 100 percent for the Storm. The guard is a fringe rotation player for Seattle, however, so there aren't many fantasy implications here.

JULY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Sunday Brown (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Golden State, Matt Cohen of Winsidr.com reports.

Impact Brown will miss a third consecutive game while battling an illness, and she'll look to return to action against the Dream on Thursday. She averaged just 1.8 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.6 assists over 9.8 minutes per game in five appearances prior to her illness.

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Remaining sidelined Friday Brown (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Sun, Brenden Potts of World Exposure Report reports.

Impact Brown will miss her second straight game Friday due to illness, with her next opportunity to play coming Sunday against the Valkyries. The guard has had a lackluster first season with the Storm, averaging 1.1 points on 13.3 percent shooting in 7.8 minutes per game across 11 appearances.

JUNE 26 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't play Tuesday Brown (illness) didn't play in Tuesday's game versus the Fever.

Impact Brown was listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest and ultimately didn't suit up despite Seattle never updating her status. Brown's next chance to play is Friday's matchup with Connecticut.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Considered questionable for Tuesday Brown is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Fever due to an illness, Scott Horner and Chloe Peterson of the Indianapolis Star report.

Impact Brown is in danger of missing her first matchup since June 3 after being added to the team's injury report. The Storm will likely re-evaluate Brown closer to tipoff before providing another update on her availability.

JUNE 24 • ROTOWIRE

Sees season-high 21 minutes Brown had three points (1-6 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 98-67 win over the Sparks.

Impact Due to the lopsided score, Brown saw a season-high 21 minutes. She wasn't able to take advantage of the opportunity, however. Through nine games, she's averaging 1.2 points and 0.6 rebounds in 8.4 minutes.

JUNE 18 • ROTOWIRE

Plays nine minutes in defeat Brown provided one rebound across nine minutes during Friday's 94-87 loss to the Dream.

Impact Brown indicated ahead of the 2025 season that she felt good after missing significant time over the last few years due to Crohn's disease. However, she's had a minimal role off the bench to begin her time with the Storm, as she's failed to record a point over five appearances this season, and she played single-digit minutes for a fourth consecutive outing Friday. Brown averaged 10.3 points and 2.8 assists in 27.0 minutes per game over her last two seasons with the Sparks, but she's been a non-factor in fantasy to begin the 2025 campaign.

MAY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Feeling good ahead of 2025 opener Brown (illness) doesn't expect to miss any games in 2025, Sara Jane Gamelli of Ball Is Life reports.

Impact Brown was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2024 and was forced to miss a good chunk of the campaign, but she's been feeling healthy over the offseason. Brown notes that her doctor's have helped her manage the disease well, and she's been feeling strong for about six months. All signs point to her being available for the beginning of the 2025 season, which is scheduled to start Sunday against Connecticut. Brown is in line to play a vital role for the Storm in the backcourt and will look to bounce back from shooting a sluggish 32.1 percent from the field over 16 appearances a year ago.
