Minnesota LynxvsLas Vegas Aces
MIN 92/LV 87
Things to say
The Minnesota Lynx beat the Las Vegas Aces 92-87 in Las Vegas.
01
opener
Lynx went into Vegas and took the Aces down, 92-87. Minnesota's just built different this year. That's a statement win on the road.
02
key player
A'ja dropped 32 and it still wasn't enough. That's how you know Minnesota's for real.
03
hot take
Aces are getting way too much love. They can't hang with the Lynx when it matters.
04
deep cut
Olivia Miles quietly ran the show, 23 and 8 dimes. Rookie's got ice in her veins.
05
exit
Anyway, if these two meet in the playoffs, book it, Lynx in five.
The recap
Minnesota went into Vegas and grabbed a gritty 92-87 win, and it stings a little because A'ja Wilson dropped 32 and did everything you could ask. Problem was she didn't get enough help, and the Lynx just had too many hands in the pot.
Olivia Miles ran the whole show with 23 and 8, cool as you like when the game tightened up. Minnesota's now 29-7 and looking like the team nobody wants to see come playoff time.
