Phoenix Mercury Lead Minnesota Lynx 2-1 in WNBA Semifinals, One Win from Finals
The Phoenix Mercury have taken a 2-1 lead over the Minnesota Lynx in the 2025 WNBA semifinals, putting them just one win away from reaching the WNBA Finals for the first time since 2021. After a historic 20-point comeback in Game 2, the Mercury secured a hard-fought 84-76 victory at home in Game 3, powered by strong performances from their "Big Three"—Satou Sabally, Alyssa Thomas, and Kahleah Copper—who scored 23, 21, and 21 points respectively. Phoenix's defense has been pivotal, consistently limiting Minnesota's high-powered offense and three-point shooting, while also disrupting key players like MVP runner-up Napheesa Collier. The Mercury's ability to control the boards and force turnovers has created crucial extra opportunities and stifled the Lynx's transition game. With Games 3 and 4 at home, Phoenix aims to close out the series and avoid a decisive Game 5 on the road, relying on tactical execution and maintaining their momentum. The Lynx, who led the conference in scoring and three-point shooting during the regular season, now face a must-win scenario to stay alive in the playoffs.
