Of WNBA teams with a below .500 record at the mid-point of the 2023 season, the team to watch is the Minnesota Lynx.
The Lynx are on a four-game winning streak, winning seven of their last ten games, and they’d get the eighth and final playoff spot if the season ended today.
After a bad start, Coach Cheryl Reeve has deftly guided Naphessa Collier (22.6 pts., 7.8 rebs, and nearly two sls.), Kayla McBride (13.1 pts., 3.7 rebs., 1.9 asts.), and Diamond Miller (12.8 pts., 3.8 reb., two asts.).
Now tied with Dallas for second place in the Western Conference Division, next up is the star-studded (Moriah Jefferson, Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi) but struggling (3-13) Phoenix Mercury.
Tip time is Friday night at 8p, and the game will air on the ION Network.
