Already leading by a comfortable 39-26 margin at the break, the Storm outscored Chicago 56-31 in the second half, allowing the road team to cruise to an easy victory in a game that was not competitive by any means.

The offense featured five players who reached double figures, including four starters. Skylar Diggins dropped 21 points and grabbed seven rebounds on 7-for-14 shooting from the field. Dominique Malonga led the bench unit with 14 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, and two blocks.
