‘She’s Going to be an MVP’ — Napheesa Collier Takes Next Step to Lead Lynx in 2023

Coming into the season in 2023 after missing all but four regular-season games in 2022, Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier admitted she didn’t know what kind of player she would be after giving birth or if she would return to the form of which we once saw earlier in her WNBA career.

It was a long journey back to even stepping on the court again for Collier, let alone attempting to return to All-WNBA level like over her first few years as a pro. But Collier, who is the proud mother of her daughter Mila alongside her husband Alex Bazzell, worked around the clock to rehab and get herself back to being a top talent in the league while reminding us all how dominant of a player she could be.
