Amazon’s Prime Video will be the official streaming service of the Seattle Storm, the team announced Thursday.

About 30 Storm games will be available to Prime Video customers throughout the state.

The landmark deal is one of the first among streamers to hold local broadcast rights with a WNBA team.

The Storm season is set to tip off on May 6, when the Storm hosts the Minnesota Lynx at the Climate Pledge Arena.

In addition to Storm coverage, Prime Video will also host 17 exclusive, nationally televised in-season games, including the second annual WNBA Commissioner’s Cup by Coinbase and the Cup Championship Game on July 26.
