The Winston-Salem Storm is an American Basketball Association (ABA) 2008–09 expansion team based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

The Triad Community chose the name through the “Name Your Team” contest that began last fall and concluded in January 2008. The owl, a native North Carolina species, is a fierce hunter that "storms" its prey.

The team began playing in the fall of 2008. In the 2008–09 season they plan to play 15 home games and 15 away games spanning the period of November 16, 2008 – March 14, 2009. The team is owned by Wes Mason, and its general manager is Bryan Short. The Storm's first home game this season is November 21 against the Nashville Broncs.

The Storm will be attending Winston-Salem's downtown event "Rock the Block" in October, as well as making appearances at local schools and performing book drives to help encourage local youth to succeed in their studies.
