The Seattle Storm (19-20) visit the Minnesota Lynx (30-7) on Thursday, August 28, at the Target Center.
This is the fourth time that the Lynx and Storm will face each other this season. The Lynx have a 2-1 head-to-head advantage, with the most recent coming in the form of a 91-87 victory over the Storm.
Moreover, the Lynx are coming off back-to-back wins over the Indiana Fever. In their last 97-84 win, Napheesa Collier put on another impressive display of 32 points and 9 rebounds. As a team, they shot an excellent 57.1% clip from the field, including 12-21 from the three-point line.
Meanwhile, the Storm just lost to the same Fever team, 95-75. Nneka Ogwumike and Brittney Sykes were the only two Storm players to reach double digits in scoring.
Offense has always been a weakness for the Storm, as they are in the bottom half of the league in offensive rating. The good thing is that they're good on the other end, ranking third in defensive rating.
This will be a great game to watch, as both teams come fully healthy heading into Thursday. Storm's Katie Lou Samuelson is the only player listed on the injury report, but she hasn't played all season long.
