Nowitzki was not the only basketball star in the crowd on Monday with San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama also in attendance. His home country of France was well represented on the court with Dominique Malonga, the No. 2 pick in the WNBA Draft, suiting up for the Storm and scoring two points in her brief action.

The Wings, meanwhile, finished the 2024 season with their worst winning percentage since 2011 at .225 (9-31 record), ending 11th in the league and missing the playoffs for the first time since 2020.

Still, it was quite the impressive return for Bueckers, who recorded the first double-double of her WNBA career with 12 points, 10 assists, three steals and a rebound.
