Natasha Howard, Nia Coffey Star as Lynx Dominate Portland

  • On Monday, the Minnesota Lynx defeated the visiting Portland Fire 107-74 at Target Center, with Natasha Howard leading seven players in double-figure scoring with 18 points.
  • The Portland Fire, a rebooted expansion franchise entering the league this year, returned to Target Center for a reunion with forward Bridget Carleton, who spent four seasons with Minnesota.
  • Nia Coffey contributed 15 points, sinking all three 3-point attempts in a 35-point first quarter, while the Lynx shot 54.5% from the field and recorded a season-high 31 assists.
  • Minnesota improved to 5-1 in the WNBA Commissioner's Cup round-robin schedule, though Las Vegas needs only to beat Dallas or Phoenix to secure the Western Conference spot.
  • Wednesday marks the final night of scheduled Commissioner's Cup games, with the Lynx traveling to Los Angeles and the Fire hosting Seattle.
