\u201cI\u2019m\u00a0so excited to join the Storm.\u00a0They\u2019ve\u00a0set the standard in women\u2019s basketball for years, and I look forward to being part of a team that prioritizes its players and is backed by an incredible fan base,\u201d said\u00a0Dolson, a center. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to bring my veteran leadership and fun energy to the squad!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cStef brings a championship pedigree and a veteran presence that aligns with our culture and our direction,\u201d said Storm General Manager\u00a0Talisa Rhea. \u201cShe\u2019s the kind of player who elevates a locker room through her professionalism, consistency and approach to the game. Her versatility adds real value to our roster, and we\u2019re excited for Stef to step into this group and be part of what we\u2019re continuing to build here.\u201d<\/p>\n
