Follow-up question — who do you think the Lynx would most WANT in a first-round matchup?

Cassidy Hettesheimer@cassidyhett.bsky.social · 2d ago

WNBA standings as of today. 1st thought: Those first-round playoff matchups would be something. And 2nd: The drop off between 8 and 9 is so steep compared to 4-8 — will be really interesting to see if anyone can close the gap, or if the rest of the year is jockeying for position.

Maya Caldwell was such a nice pickup for Minnesota, at the cost of virtually nothing. We've reached the point where she's earned Reeve's trust to the extent that she's likely going to get playoff minutes, despite shooting 37% from the field. #WNBA

In the W, offense is more dynamic than ever. Players have greater freedom of movement. And against a historic offense in a historic scoring season league-wide, the Lynx showed they can beat the Fever at their own game. For @stribsports.startribune.com www.startribune.com/minnesota-ly...

The Indiana Fever have a historic offense. The Lynx showed they can beat them at their own game.

The Lynx extended their win streak to 10 with a 108-100 win over the Fever at Target Center on Sunday.

For those that aren't on the other site... Dawn Staley was tuning in to Lynx vs. Fever today:

Earlier this season, McBride said Kelsey Mitchell was the toughest player to guard. Reeve called her "the fastest player in the league." Miles: "Kelsey Mitchell is legit one of the best basketball players I think I've ever seen." High praise, and dropped 37 on the Lynx today.

Napheesa Collier really packed the scoresheet tonight with 18 pts (6-for-13), 3-for-5 from three, team-high eight rebounds, team-high seven assists, one steal, one block.

Olivia Miles on breaking another Lynx franchise record (10 20 pt/5 ast games this season, set by Maya Moore): "It's definitely special. It's elite company for sure, especially with the Lynx history and their perennial power ... Obviously, Maya Moore is a great, all-time..."

FINAL: Lynx 108, Fever 100 That’s 10 straight Ws for the Lynx. All starters in double figures. Williams big in the 4th and finishes 27 pts, 5a. Miles 28p/6a/4r. Phee 18p/8r/7a. Both teams shoot 57%. Mitchell pours in 37 for the Fever.

Courtney Williams up to 10 points here in the fourth as the Lynx lead 107-100 with 32.3 seconds to play. Huge in the 4th, now up to 26 pts on 12-for-20 shooting.

Napheesa Collier passes Katie Smith for third all-time in Lynx franchise scoring history, gets a nod and applause on the video board here early in the 4th quarter

Courtney Williams with back-to-back buckets here to open the fourth and the Fever call a TO, Lynx up 93-80 with 8:06 to play.

END 3Q | Lynx 87, Fever 76 23-23 third quarter here. Nice 8 pt/3r/1a/1s quarter for Phee.

With Howard in foul trouble, some needed defense here from Collier and Coffey turns into some quick points for the Lynx in transition. Back to a double-digit lead for MN, 83-71

HALF | Lynx 64, Fever 53 Olivia Miles and Kelsey Mitchel both with 23 first-half points. Plus, 5a/4r for Liv, 10-for-12 from the floor. Lynx are shooting 65%, Fever 58.3%. Lynx with 15-9 edge on the boards.

2Q 5:57 | Lynx 49, Fever 41 Largest lead of the game for either team. Olivia Miles up to 17 points, with 8 here so far in the 2nd. 7-for-8, 3-for-4 from three, with five assists and two boards.

END 1Q | Lynx 36, Fever 33 Whew, I'm outta breathe just watching this one. Three combined TOs, Lynx shooting 75%, Fever 65%. Olivia Miles leads the Lynx with 9 pts/3 ast. Williams w/ 8. Kelsey Mitchell with 16 for Indiana.

Something to keep an eye on: two fouls for Natasha Howard with 3:20 to play in the 1st. Dorka subs in for Lynx, off bench after Nia Coffey and Maya Caldwell.

If this is how loud Target Center is going to be today and it's only the first quarter... sheesh

Newest Lynx Chloe Bibby during warmups ahead of Lynx vs. Fever:

PSA: Cheryl Reeve mentioned it pregame, but the Lynx welcome back Eliska Hamzova as Eliška Joklová — her new married name!

Lynx still have a second dev spot to play with. Reminder that dev spot players are not eligible to play in the postseason.

During pregame today Cheryl Reeve tells media that “we will not be making any trades” and that the roster as of now is “set” utilizing the Season Ending Injury exception to retain Eliška Hamzova.

“Our roster is complete… we will not be making any trades.” — Cheryl Reeve, re: playing a game that will end around the trade deadline today
