The top-two teams in the Western Conference will face each other as Napheesa Collier and the Minnesota Lynx welcome the Seattle Storm to Target Center on Tuesday. The Storm are on a three-game winning streak after bouncing back from their opening day loss to the Phoenix Mercury.
The Lynx are not to be taken lightly as they are the most in-form team in the West this season. The team is currently 4-0 up and sits first in the WNBA after cruising to victory in all four games so far, including winning by 14+ points in their first two matchups.
Minnesota appears to have quickly built up team chemistry as its offseason additions have blended well with other starters. Napheesa Collier is the star of the franchise, leading the team alongside Jessica Shepard and Courtney Williams this year.
Seattle is a force to be reckoned with, especially as veteran star Nneka Ogwumike has transformed into a scoring machine after their opening day defeat. She leads the team in points and rebounds while freeing up Skylar Diggins to take charge of the assists department.
As such, this game will undoubtedly be an exciting one to watch, as two of the best teams in the league go toe-to-toe with each other.
