NBA Summer League recap: Wolves top Warriors 78-76 in sudden death

Lindsay Whalen isn’t quite an All-Star Game starter midway through her 14th WNBA season, but the Minnesota Lynx’s homegrown star is still piling up milestones.

Originally drafted by the Connecticut Sun in 2004, Whalen’s career spans just over 60 percent of the WNBA’s entire history, and the stats are starting to reflect her longevity, as well as her contributions to the Lynx’s dominance.

Just two members of the top 10 remain active: Whalen and Seattle Storm guard Sue Bird. Assuming that Whalen continues to play major minutes over the next few years she could very well finish her career as one of the WNBA’s most senior players.
