What happened: The incident involved two teenage fans carrying signs supporting Sophie Cunningham during Tuesday's 105-95 home loss. Seattle apologized Wednesday, saying every attendee deserves to feel welcome.
Why it matters: The sanction puts ownership conduct toward fans under league scrutiny. The dispute has also pulled Seattle into a wider debate over Cunningham's comments on transgender participation in women's sports.
By the numbers: Seattle fell to 6-24 with the defeat, extending its losing streak to seven games.
What to watch: The next Storm home date will be the first covered by Keaton's ban, with four more home games to follow.
