Chicago Sky vs Minnesota Lynx: What to expect
With the postseason around the corner, the Lynx have already started building momentum. They enter their matchup with the Sky riding high on a four-game win streak.
As for Chicago, they are without the services of their top rookie as the season comes to a close. Angel Reese suffered a season-ending injury last week, leaving a big hole in their lineup.
It's been an up-and-down stretch for Chicago as of late. They're coming off a loss to the Washington Mystics on Wednesday and are 2-2 over their last four games. The ninth-place Atlanta Dream trails Sky by only one game.

Another thing to keep an eye on in this game is a stellar Napheesa Collier performance. As the regular season winds down, the Lynx star finds herself in the MVP conversation. With a few games to go, the four-time All-Star is averaging 20.4 points, 9.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists.
