WNBA Star Kelsey Plum Traded In Blockbuster Move

Kelsey Plum, the Las Vegas Aces guard and one of the top players in the WNBA, is being traded in a blockbuster move on Sunday evening.

ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania is reporting that Plum, who starred collegiately at Washington, is being shipped out by the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday night. Plum, 30, had been mentioned in trade rumors for a couple of weeks ago. Some in the WNBA chose to discount those rumors, but they proved to be legitimate.

Plum is reportedly being traded to Seattle, for six-time WNBA All-Star Jewell Lloyd on Sunday evening. Charania first reported the news on Sunday night.

"Blockbuster WNBA deal: The Seattle Storm are trading six-time All-Star Jewell Loyd to the Las Vegas Aces in a multi-team move that sends three-time All-Star Kelsey Plum to the Los Angeles Sparks, sources tell me," he reported on Sunday night.

He added: "The Storm are acquiring the No. 2 pick in the 2025 WNBA draft and Li Yueru from the Sparks in this three-team trade, with the Sparks getting No. 9 from Seattle and the Aces receiving No. 13 from LA."
