WNBA midseason grades: Lynx, Mercury off to superb starts while Sun, Wings stumble out the gate
Before the games begin again, here's a look at where all 13 teams stand with CBS Sports' midseason grades. The Dream limped into the All-Star break. They lost five of their last eight games and Rhyne Howard was ruled out until August after hyperextending her knee in a defeat to the Fever.
The Lynx’ dominance defined the 2010s. They won four WNBA titles in seven seasons from 2011-17, hanging a banner in Target Center every other year.
Could the idea of returning to her hometown franchise lure Cheryl Reeve away from Minnesota? Probably not, but the Lynx coach is still excited about the league coming to Philadelphia.
The WNBA’s splashy All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis just put everyone on notice, as the second half of the season and thus the push for the eight playoff spots
The WNBA starts the second half of its schedule Tuesday, with three teams emerging as the most likely to contend for the championship: the Minnesota Lynx, New York Liberty and Phoenix Mercury.
Minnesota Lynx star and 2025 WNBA All-Star Game MVP Napheesa Collier took to Instagram on Monday to share a personal photo carousel capturing key moments from the unforgettable All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis. The post quickly drew attention from across the WNBA community, including some of the league’s biggest names.
It was a festive WNBA All-Star weekend in Indianapolis and the Lynx were heavily represented. Cheryl Reeve coached one of the teams and had her players Napheesa Collier, Courtney Williams, and Kayla McBride join her.
Minnesota Lynx players Napheesa Collier and Courtney Williams were part of the WNBA contingent to wear "Pay us what you owe us" shirts before the All-Star Game. Players and the league are in negotiations for higher-paying contracts as part of the next collective bargaining agreement.
