What a chaotic first week of the WNBA season for the Minnesota Lynx.
Just over a week ago, head coach and general manager Cheryl Reeve made waves with her surprising decision to waive a number of players, most notably 2017 All-Star Layshia Clarendon and 2019 Rookie of the Year Crystal Dangerfield. Reeve decided to put her trust in seventh-year guard Rachel Banham, brought back Odyssey Sims, and signed journeywoman Yvonne Turner to be the primary ball-handlers.
The results have not been great, as Minnesota is the lone team sitting at 0-3 at the bottom of the league standings.
