The Minnesota Lynx took the floor to take on the Chicago Sky in their preseason opener at Target Center on Friday night, marking the first WNBA/NBA basketball eclipse we’ve had in the Twin Cities in quite some time.
Kayla McBride (rest, illness) did not play in this one after arriving midweek on the heels of finishing her overseas season with EuroLeague Champion Fenerbahçe alongside fellow Lynx star Napheesa Collier. The First Team All-WNBA did take the floor on Friday, along with another EuroLeague performer in Bridget Carleton and sophomore wing Diamond Miller, who is coming off left knee surgery in November.
