Lynx Extend Road Dominance as Reeve Ties WNBA Regular-Season Wins Record

Reeve's record-tying win raises her standing as Minnesota balances roster moves with impending returns.

Overview

  • The Lynx won back-to-back road games to remain atop the WNBA at 15-4 and hold a 9-1 mark away from home.
  • Minnesota waived veteran center Teaira McCowan and promoted Liatu King from a developmental deal to a standard contract, opening a developmental roster spot.
  • Napheesa Collier and Dorka Juhász have been practicing with the team and are described as close to game-ready, which could change Minnesota's rotation when they return.
  • Coach Cheryl Reeve was inducted into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame and secured her 379th regular-season win, tying the league record and setting up a chance to break it in the next road game in New York.
  • The Lynx are producing league-leading efficiency without Collier and Juhász, and their imminent returns plus the freed developmental slot could prompt more short-term roster moves and alter minutes for current players.
