The Minnesota Lynx crushed the Portland Fire 107-74 in a dominant performance, led by Natasha Howard’s 18 points and Nia Coffey’s all-around masterpiece of 15 points, 5 rebounds, 3 steals, and 3 blocks — especially meaningful playing for her hometown team. The Lynx forced 22 Portland turnovers, turning them into 26 easy points, and exploded for 35 in the first quarter — their season-high. With a 5-1 record, they’re cruising in the Commissioner’s Cup, while Las Vegas still races for the Western spot and New York already owns the Eastern. A nostalgic homecoming for Portland’s Bridget Carleton — former Lynx player honored alongside Sylvia Fowles — ended in disappointment as Carleton scored just 3 points. The Lynx close out their Cup run this week against LA, with the championship slated for June 30. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
