Buckets are back in the forecast for the Minnesota Lynx.
The team on Monday morning activated star guard Kayla McBride, fresh off her Turkish League title Sunday with EuroLeague’s Fenerbaçhe Safiport. Veteran guard Yvonne Turner was released from the team Monday, as she was the hardship replacement player tied to McBride.
McBride will fly straight from Turkey to Los Angeles, where she will report to the Lynx. The three-time All-Star is expected to start in the back-court alongside her former San Antonio Shooting Stars and Las Vegas Aces teammate Moriah Jefferson in Tuesday night’s road matchup with the Sparks.
