Minnesota Lynx rookie Olivia Miles delivered a dramatic half-court buzzer-beater against the Las Vegas Aces, signaling her rise as a pivotal playmaker as the Lynx push toward the playoffs. She later starred with 26 points in a 98-87 win to clinch a playoff berth, supported by Napheesa Collier and a balanced lineup that stretched the lead and held off the Aces.
Napheesa Collier was listed as probable to make her 2026 season debut for the Minnesota Lynx against the Seattle Storm, marking a high-profile return after offseason surgery on both ankles while Minnesota sits atop the league standings.
