Report: Five-Time WNBA All-Star Angel McCoughtry Expected to Join Lynx

Five-time WNBA All-Star Angel McCoughtry is expected to agree to a contract with the Minnesota Lynx, according to Khristina Williams of Girls Talk Sports TV. The terms of the contract, which McCoughtry is eligible to sign on Tuesday, are unknown.

McCoughtry, one of the premier scorers in WNBA history, is joining a Lynx team she is very familiar with. The well-respected wing famously battled Maya Moore and the Lynx as a member of the 2011 and 2013 Atlanta Dream teams that lost to Minnesota in the WNBA Finals.

Rumors about McCoughtry’s potential interest in playing for Cheryl Reeve in Minnesota began circulating when she sat court-side with Lynx star Napheesa Collier at Target Center to take in the Minnesota Timberwolves’ win over the Golden State Warriors back on January 16th.
