WNBA Minnesota Lynx vs Seattle Storm


WNBA Sunday Night
Minnesota Lynx vs Seattle Storm

Looking to pick up where they left off after a dramatic victory, the WNBA-leading Seattle Storm face the Minnesota Lynx in a top-four showdown and potential finals preview.

The Storm (14-3) retained sole possession of the league lead with a 90-89 victory over the second-place Los Angeles Sparks on Friday night. Jewell Loyd's buzzer-beating 3-pointer from the left corner provided the winning margin as Seattle overcame a 13-point, first-half deficit.

Minnesota (12-5) is also in the hunt for one of those top two spots and could turn the top four race into a free-for-all with a victory that would pull Seattle closer to the chasing pack. The Lynx have found their groove offensively during a three-game winning streak, averaging 90 points in that span after dispatching Dallas 88-75 on Friday night.
