The Minnesota Lynx crushed the Golden State Valkyries 77-66 in a dominant performance, with rookie sensation Olivia Miles delivering a game-high 20 points before exiting due to an ankle injury. Kayla McBride added 20 points and nailed a clutch three-pointer with the iconic “night night” celebration, while Napheesa Collier contributed 18 points and 8 rebounds. The Valkyries, who’ve been on fire lately, saw their six-game win streak snapped and fell to 7-1 against Minnesota this season. Despite shooting poorly and struggling offensively, Golden State still secured a playoff spot — and their home arena will host the 2027 All-Star Game. The Lynx, now on a 5-game win streak and 15-1 in their last 16 games, head to Washington next Friday, where they’ll face Chicago — setting up a high-stakes showdown for both teams.
