Everything the Minnesota Lynx have fought for all season, through every bit of adversity from injuries to external doubt to plenty of new players, all comes down to one game against the No. 6 seed Chicago Sky in Downtown Minneapolis on Sunday afternoon.
“I’m excited for our team,” Head Coach and General Manager Cheryl Reeve said after Friday’s practice. “We talked at our team dinner [about how the team] earned the opportunity to be at home.”
Reeve’s resilient bunch has certainly earned this lucrative opportunity to go to battle with the season on the line in front of their tremendous fans at Target Center, who represent a city clamoring for playoff basketball.
