Minnesota Lynx defeat Connecticut Sun, even series at 1-1

The Minnesota Lynx defeated the Connecticut Sun 77-70 in Game 2 of the WNBA semifinals, with Courtney Williams scoring 17 points and Alanna Smith adding 15 points. Despite a tough night for Napheesa Collier, who only scored nine points, the Lynx managed to even the series. Alyssa Thomas led the Sun with 18 points, but their poor 3-point shooting hurt their chances. The series will now head to Connecticut for Games 3 and 4 before potentially returning to Minnesota for Game 5. The Lynx’s strong home record this season helped them bounce back from their Game 1 loss with a physical and intense performance in Game 2.
