Storm routed by Tulsa 92-70

TULSA, Okla. — Roneeka Hodges scored 19 points, Glory Johnson had 14 points and 12 rebounds, and the Shock beat the Seattle Storm 92-70 Saturday night for their most lopsided win in four seasons in Tulsa.

Courtney Paris and Nicole Powell scored 11 points each and Jennifer Lacy and Angel Goodrich added 10 apiece for the Shock (3-7). Tulsa won its second straight overall and beat the Storm for the second straight time after losing 12 of 13 following its move from Detroit before the 2010 season.

Tianna Hawkins, the sixth overall pick in the 2013 draft, scored 17 points to lead Seattle (4-4). Temeka Johnson had 13 points and Shekinna Stricklen and Alysha Clark each scored 10.

The Storm’s Tina Thompson, the WNBA’s all-time leading scorer, was limited to three points and was 1-for-8 from the field.

Tulsa never trailed and increased its lead to 25 points early in the fourth quarter.
