The Minnesota Lynx returned home Wednesday night to host the lone game of the night in the WNBA and the final game of a three-game homestand against the Washington Mystics.
In a back-and-forth battle between the Lynx and Mystics, both who have dealt with a fair share of injuries lately, Minnesota did just enough in the final minutes to defend home court in a 97-92 victory.
To open the game, the Lynx jumped out of the gate while leading by as much as nine in the opening frame, but the Mystics battled back to retake the lead in the second quarter and hold a 60-58 advantage at halftime.
