The Minnesota Lynx did something Tuesday night that they usually accomplish in the first week of the season- winning back-to-back games.
Taking cues from Saturday night’s victory over New York, the Lynx came out of the gates strong. They played with energy and effort, breaking open the game with a 20-6 stretch over the first six minutes of the first quarter. Minnesota flummoxed Dallas early in this game. They were excellent offensively and defensively, forcing turnovers on one end, and shooting 61% on the other in the opening frame.
As is the case in most WNBA games, the marquee matchup took place in the post.
