<\/p>\n Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon teams up with Minnesota Lynx to help nonprofits<\/p>\n 02:20<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Courtney Williams scored 14 of her 20 points in the second half, Jessica Shepard added 13 points and 13 rebounds and Kayla McBride made 6 of 6 from the free-throw line in the final 30 seconds to help the Minnesota Lynx beat the Seattle Storm 91-87 on Tuesday night. <\/p>\n DiJonai Carrington \u2014 who was acquired from Dallas on Sunday<\/a> in exchange for Diamond Miller, Karlie Samuelson and a 2027 second-round pick \u2014 made her debut for the Lynx and scored 13 points.<\/p>\n McBride finished with 14 points and Bridget Carleton scored 12 on four second-half 3-pointers. <\/p>\n Nneka Ogwumike led the Storm with 23 points. Ogwumike moved past Lauren Jackson and DeWanna Bonner into seventh in WNBA history with 140 career games scoring at least 20 points. <\/p>\n Erica Wheeler scored 19 points, Dominique Malonga added 12 and Skylar Diggins 11 for Seattle. <\/p>\n Gabby Williams had nine points and three steals and broke Seattle’s single-season steals record with 77 this season. Natasha Howard set the previous mark when she led the WNBA with 74 steals in 2019. <\/p>\n The Lynx (25-5) have won seven of eight. <\/p>\n Napheesa Collier<\/a> (right ankle) did not play for the Lynx. Collier, a minus-1000 favorite to win WNBA MVP at BetMGM Sportsbook, left late in Minnesota’s 111-58 win over Las Vegas<\/a> on Saturday. <\/p>\n Seattle’s Tiffany Mitchell fell awkwardly on a layup attempt that was blocked by Carrington early in the fourth quarter. She left the game and did not return. <\/p>\n Seattle (16-14) has lost three in a row and four of five. <\/p>\n Seattle traded Alysha Clark, Zia Cooke and a 2026 first-round pick to Washington earlier Tuesday in exchange for All-Star Brittney Sykes \u2014 a four-time all-defensive team selection who is averaging 15.4 points, 4.4 assists and 1.2 steals this season.<\/p>\n The Lynx host the Mystics on Friday and Seattle plays the Aces in Las Vegas. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon teams up with Minnesota Lynx to help nonprofits Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon teams up…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":123483,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[1519,62,67,132,68,232],"class_list":{"0":"post-123482","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wnba","8":"tag-minnesota-lynx","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us","13":"tag-wnba"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=123482"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123482\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/123483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=123482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=123482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=123482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
