Minnesota LynxvsChicago Sky

MIN 79/CHI 58

IONWintrust Arena
Things to say

Minnesota beat Chicago 79-58 at Wintrust Arena.

01
Lynx rolled the Sky in Chicago, 79-58. Wasn't even close in the second half. Minnesota's just a different team right now.
02
key player
Nia Coffey went off — 20 and 8 off the bench, looked like she had ice in her veins.
03
hot take
Sky couldn't buy a bucket all night. 58 points at home? That's not a loss, that's a wake-up call.
04
deep cut
Cardoso had 13 boards and Chicago still got crushed on the glass when it mattered. And Olivia Miles quietly dropped 6 dimes running the show for Minnesota.
05
exit
Lynx are 6-2 now — gotta see what they do next time out, they're for real.
The recap

Lynx rolled into Chicago and ate them up, 79-58, with Nia Coffey going off for 20 and 8 to lead the way. Sky just couldn't buy a bucket all night, with Kamilla Cardoso's 12 and 13 the only real bright spot in a game where nobody else showed up to help.

Minnesota's been an absolute clinic this year and that 6-2 record is no fluke, while Chicago drops to 3-5 and has to be wondering where the offense went. Olivia Miles ran the show with 6 dimes and the Lynx never let the Sky sniff a comeback.
