The 2022 Seattle Storm season was the franchise's 23rd season in the Women's National Basketball Association. This was the first season back in the newly renovated Climate Pledge Arena.[1]

On June 16, 2022, Sue Bird announced that this season would be her final one and that she would be retiring after the season.[2]

The Storm started the season with an opening day win, but went on to lose their next three games. They turned their fortunes around after the three game losing streak, and went on a four-game winning streak to end the month of May 5–3. June started with two straight losses, but then the team won four games straight. They won three of their last five games to finish June 7–4. They started July strong, losing one of their first six games in the month. The end of the month saw the team only get two wins out of six games, with five of those six games being on the road. They finished July 7–5 and clinched a playoff spot on July 30. The Storm went 3–2 in August, with their only two losses coming to the first place Las Vegas Aces. They finished the season 22–14, tied for fourth with Washington. They were awarded the 4th seed based on having a better regular season record vs. Washington.

In their First Round series, the Storm had home court advantage as the fourth seed, and faced off against the fifth seeded Washington Mystics. The Storm won a close game one 86–83. They took advantage of their home court and won game two by thirteen points, to sweep the series. In the Semifinals, they were up against the first seeded Aces. The Storm won another close game one, 76–73 in Las Vegas. However, they would go on to lose the next three games and lose the series three games to one. Most of the games in the series were close, with game two being decided by four points, game three going into overtime, and game four being decided by five points.
