Minnesota LynxvsDallas Wings
MIN 85/DAL 77
Things to say
The Minnesota Lynx beat the Dallas Wings 85-77 on the road.
01
opener
Lynx went into Dallas and took care of business, 85-77. They're 15-4 now, just the class of the league right now. Wings hung around but couldn't get over the hump.
02
key player
Natasha Howard was an absolute problem down low, 21 and 14. She ate them up in the paint all night.
03
hot take
Paige Bueckers dropped 25 and they still took the L. Rook can get buckets, but one star can't carry that roster yet.
04
deep cut
Watch Olivia Miles though, 8 dimes off the bench. That's a guard who actually runs an offense.
05
exit
Anyway, Minnesota's rolling. Curious if anyone can slow them down before the break.
The recap
Minnesota went into Dallas and handled business, 85-77, stretching to a ridiculous 15-4 on the year. Natasha Howard was the engine all night, pouring in 21 with a 14-board double-double and bullying the paint on both ends.
Paige Bueckers got buckets for the Wings with 25, but she didn't get enough help and Dallas took the L at home. The Lynx just look like the grown-ups in the room right now.
