The Seattle Storm have traded Camille Little and Shekinna Stricklen to the Connecticut Sun for the third and 15th picks in the upcoming WNBA draft and Renee Montgomery.
The Storm already have the No. 1 pick.
Connecticut is trying to regroup from the loss of rookie of the year Chiney Ogwumike, who is sidelined for at least six months after having microfracture surgery on her right knee Thursday. The Sun still have the fourth pick, which they acquired from New York in a trade last year.
Montgomery starred at UConn before getting drafted by Minnesota in 2009. She then was acquired by the Sun in a trade in 2010.
Seattle has already begun the process of rebuilding the franchise. Former coach Brian Agler left to take the job at Los Angeles earlier this month. The Storm promoted Jenny Boucek to head coach last week.
