Minnesota Lynx Earn 11th Straight Home Win, Set Franchise Record

News summary

Courtney Williams tied her season high with 25 points, and Napheesa Collier scored 21 as the Minnesota Lynx defeated the Chicago Sky 80-75, setting a franchise record with 11 consecutive home wins to start the season. Collier was perfect from the free-throw line, making 7 of 7 and extending her franchise-record streak to 45 consecutive foul shots. Angel Reese led the Sky with her 11th double-double of the season, contributing 16 points, 17 rebounds, and six assists. The Lynx overcame an early 24-10 deficit and a poor second-quarter shooting performance by the Sky, using a 16-2 run to take the lead before halftime. Key late-game moments included Kayla McBride's running floater to extend the lead and Alanna Smith's crucial block of a potential tying three-pointer by Rachel Banham, who scored a season-high 20 points with six three-pointers. Williams was also recently named a WNBA All-Star reserve, marking her first selection as a member of the Lynx. The Lynx played their third game in four days and fourth in six, showing resilience in a tightly contested game.
