Fowles, Collier help Lynx rally, beat Sun 77-69
BRADENTON, Fla. Sylvia Fowles had 17 issues and 18 rebounds, Napheesa Collier scored 9 of her 11 issues within the ultimate 5 mins, and the Minnesota Lynx rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit to overcome the Connecticut Solar 77-69 on Sunday within the season opener for each groups.
The 2020 WNBA season, behind schedule and shortened via the coronavirus pandemic, might be performed in a bubble on the IMG Academy in Florida.
Shenise Johnson scored 13 issues for Minnesota and rookie Crystal Dangerfield 10 in her WNBA debut.
Alyssa Thomas led Connecticut with 20 issues, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. DeWanna Bonner, a three-time All-Superstar who signed as a unfastened agent this offseason, added 19 issues, 8 rebounds and 3 steals.
Collier hit a Three-pointer and, after the Solar’s Brionna Jones made a put-back layup to make it 65-all, Dangerfield made every other Three to offer Minnesota the lead for just right with Three:21 to play.
The Lynx neglected their first 11 Three-point pictures prior to making 4 in their final six over the general 10-plus mins.
