Skylar Diggins and the Seattle Storm defeated the Connecticut Sun 79-65 in their second back-to-back meetings. After losing to the Sun on Tuesday, the Storm came with a perfect answer behind Gabby Williams and Diggins.

On Friday, the Storm's starters delivered, scoring 68 of the total 79 points. Diggins had 14 points, five rebounds and five assists in 26 minutes. She shot 45.5%, including 60.0% from the 3-point line.

While the Storm's performance was hailed by the fans on social media, featuring a video of Williams thanking fans, followed by a long applause, not all fans were entirely elated, because of an off-court loss.

Diggins was active in the comment section, showing love to her teammate. However, a fan commented that his parlay was busted by two points from Diggins.

"Sold my ticket by 2 points Skylar but good game 🔥," the fan wrote.

The Storm star had a savage reply.

"@kangoslim idc about your ticket," Diggins replied.
