Ndour is with the team but won't play tonight. Samuelson, Faulkner & Jackson are all active for tonight.

This gray vs. yellow is a bit rough on the eyes.

The Lynx are difficult to break down defensively. Especially if Sims is getting after it on defense. If she takes Quigley out of the equation, you’re looking at difficult matchups everywhere. Collier is one of the few with the strength and athleticism to neutralize DD. Though I should say Talbot started on her with Collier playing 4. But Talbot gets after it on D too.

Collier’s ability to switch and guard multiple positions wreaks havoc if you are careless with the ball. Chicago typically isn’t but the Lynx are pressuring them into discomfort.

The Sky second unit defended NY really well in their game but Gabby at the point struggled to score. So far seems similar here.

What is with the Lynx giving up buzzer beaters?

Nice end to the quarter for Chicago. Man I hate the way Sims plays. Just doesn’t effectively see mismatches away from her own shot. That’s not to say she’s not a good player. At times she was even quite effective in big spots for the Sparks. But I’m just not a fan of players whose decision-making can be so erratic.

Robinson sure could be something special if she ever learned to hit layups.

She’s so long and athletic. Her main offensive game is a drive but she can be tough defensively and in transition. Good fit for how the Lynx are structured.

I know Fagbenle will be back soon, but any word on Zandalasini?

She has an ankle injury last I heard. Unsure about her status.

In defence of Diamond, I don't know that I would be all that urgent about closing out a long 2 in transition by Talbot either.

They're blaming DD for that missed defensive assignment but that was Vandersloot's fault. Sloot left Talbot and told DD to switch but Diamond was on the other side of the court. Sloot should've stayed with Talbot.

The Lynx guards make so many questionable decisions with the ball, especially during crunch time.

Seems like Asia Taylor has one good game a year on whatever team she's on and then stinks it up the rest of the season. I guess this is that game.

Quigley's on fire in the 2nd half.
Great bench production from Copper and Gabby.
What's is up with DD shot?...She's been shooting bricks for the last 10 or 11 games.
