Lynx add former Fever guard for WNBA playoff run

The deal runs through the rest of the season.

Wire Report IntelligenceUpdated Sep 71 min read

What happened: Minnesota completed the move during the WNBA's 16-day FIBA World Cup pause. League play resumes Sept. 17.

Why it matters: A playoff berth is secured, so the addition is about postseason depth rather than qualification. The extra guard gives the Lynx time to test another backcourt option before rotations tighten.

By the numbers: Minnesota entered the break 31-9 with the league's best record. The Lynx hold a two-game lead and the head-to-head tiebreaker in the race for the No. 1 seed, with four games remaining.

What to watch: Minnesota returns Sept. 18, then faces Indiana in its final two regular-season games Sept. 22 and 24.
