FILE - In this June 10, 2018, file photo, Seattle Storm forward Natasha Howard puts in a layup over Atlanta Dream guards Tiffany Hayes and Renee Montgomery, right, during the second half of a WNBA basketball game in Seattle. Almost every WNBA team this season will go through a hellacious road trip because of the FIBA World Cup in September that is compacting the season. Atlanta is in the midst of its difficult stretch, playing in six different cities across the country in the past week and a half. (Bettina Hansen/The Seattle Times via AP, File)
