[truebluefan]

Sue Bird rebounded from a miserable night with her best one of the season.

Bird scored a season-high 29 points as the Seattle Storm handed the host Tulsa Shock its 12th straight loss Saturday night, 89-72.

One night after being held to four points on 1-of-6 shooting in a loss at Minnesota, Bird was 8-of-14 from the field and 10-of-10 at the free throw line.

“For me to be able to help my team, I have to be aggressive, and if that means when I’m open to take the shots, that’s what I have to do,” Bird said. “By being aggressive, getting some shots to fall in the first half, I was able to be aggressive and find my teammates. They did an awesome job of knocking down shots.”
