Sun vs Lynx: WNBA Showdown Set for Monday

Game Overview

Connecticut arrives at Target Center with a 4‑16 overall record, battling through one of the league’s toughest stretches. The Sun broke a 2‑15 start by reeling off back‑to‑back wins over Chicago (92‑63) and Washington (68‑57) before a narrow 86‑83 loss to Dallas. Leila Lacan paced the victory over Dallas with 18 points, five assists and three steals.

Minnesota sits atop the WNBA at 15‑5, boasting the league’s second‑best offense (90.3 points per game) and defense (80.3 points per game). The Lynx suffered an unexpected 99‑86 setback to New York, where Breanna Stewart erupted for 36 points on 14‑of‑19 shooting.

Key Matchups

The Suns will look to contain Stewart, who accounted for roughly 36% of her team’s points in the Liberty game. Minnesota’s defensive scheme will be tested by Connecticut’s recent surge, led by Lacan’s double‑digit scoring output.

Both clubs are on opposite ends of the win‑loss spectrum, making this a clash of momentum and confidence. The Lynx aim to extend their dominant run, while the Sun hopes to build on the two‑game winning spurt that briefly hinted at a turnaround.
