The Minnesota Lynx wrapped up a two-game homestand and celebratory weekend against the Los Angeles Sparks on Sunday night at Target Center, the same night the franchise honored and celebrated Sylvia Fowles on her jersey retirement night.
In honor of Sweet Syl, Minnesota came back late and took down Los Angeles thanks to a second-half comeback sparked by the bench unit. The Lynx pulled out a 91-86 win to improve to 2-7 on the season while grabbing their first home win of the 2023 season.
Sunday’s game opened up in a back-and-forth battle with both teams shooting north of 40 percent from the field while entering halftime knotted up at 43-43.
