The announcement of Sylvia Fowles and Napheesa Collier being named to the USA’s Women’s National Team was a welcome bit of good news to take the sting off an ugly 18-point loss to the Dallas Wings on Saturday. Big Syl, seemingly impervious to Father Time, will be embarking on her 4th Olympic games. Meanwhile, Phee would make her very first Olympic team and represent as the youngest member of Team USA. Last, but not least, Coach Reeve rounds out USA’s coaching staff as usual.
Minnesota would also receive the news that star guard Chennedy Carter would be back in action tonight for the Atlanta Dream.
