Lynx Record Road Win Over Aces Marred by Collier Ankle Injury

News summary

The Minnesota Lynx dominated the Las Vegas Aces with a historic 111-58 road victory, marking the largest margin of victory on the road in WNBA history. However, the game was overshadowed by star forward and WNBA MVP frontrunner Napheesa Collier suffering a severe right ankle injury late in the third quarter after rolling her ankle in a collision with teammate Alanna Smith. Although Collier initially collapsed and needed assistance to leave the court, she was able to walk off with help and did not return to the game. The Lynx were leading by more than 40 points at the time, prompting questions about why Collier was still playing given the score and time remaining. Collier had a strong performance before the injury, scoring 18 points and adding five rebounds. The team now faces uncertainty regarding how long Collier will be sidelined as the Lynx continue their strong season with a 24-5 record and a solid hold on the top playoff seed.
