## Resource

The Minnesota Lynx are once again looking like a championship contender — but could this year's team be even better equipped to win it all? We break down why the 2026 Lynx have a better chance of winning the WNBA championship than last year's team, including the massive impact of Olivia Miles, Kayla McBride's breakout offensive production, Natasha Howard's physicality and the added ways Minnesota can create offense when their system gets disrupted. Plus, we preview tonight's biggest games: 🔥 Aces vs. Mystics — Can Washington beat Las Vegas twice? ⭐ Liberty vs. Fever — Has New York finally closed the gap with Indiana? 🌴 Mercury vs. Sparks — How does Phoenix replace Kelsey Plum? And we recap last night's action: 🏀 Dream 97, Tempo 83 — Atlanta gets the response it needed while Toronto drops its eighth straight. ☔ Storm 84, Sky 71 — Seattle's young frontcourt continues to show promise.
