WNBA champ Jewell Lloyd previews women's final

Published Oct 09, 2020

Jewell Lloyd has jumped from one roster to another with ease. The WBNA star just helped the Seattle Storm win the championships on Tuesday, and is now a Tennis Channel Athlete Analyst.

It marked Seattle's second WBNA title in three years, and Lloyd delivered 19 points and nine assists in the 92-59 win over the Las Vegas Aces.

She dedicated the win to Kobe and Gigi Bryant, and Breonna Taylor. Kobe Bryant gave Lloyd her nickname of Gold Mamba and was her mentor for years.

Now she's joined Ana Ivanovic, Jon Dorenbos and Paulo Dybala as a Tennis Channel Athlete Analyst for the rest of the week.

It turns out that Lloyd spent her childhood playing tennis and competed in high school. The 27-year-old would play basketball for Notre Dame before being drafted to Seattle in 2015. She's still a big fan of the game and gave her take on Sofia Kenin and Iga Swiatek, who will play in the final on Saturday.
