Minnesota Timberwolves

Barring a surprise LeBron James signing, it's unclear how the Minnesota Timberwolves will address their undeniable need for extra forward

Golden State Valkyries head coach Natalie Nakase clearly watched the film from June 4 when Minnesota Lynx’s Olivia Miles set a WNBA rookie record with 8 3-pointers, torching the Valkyries for 28 points in a narrow Lynx win. When the two teams met again Friday night at Chase Center, Nakase’s defensive game plan for Miles worked, at least on paper.

The Lynx rookie had her first difficult night as a pro, but Minnesota's coach believes it could help her long-term.

The Wolves have been focused on star runningmates for Anthony Edwards, but there’s another approach worth investigating.

What are Minnesota's plans this offseason and why did they talk to Boston about a Rudy Gobert trade?

Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve said Olivia Miles needed a tough shooting night early in her WNBA career.

Miles finished with just seven points on 1-of-10 shooting from the field, to go along with five rebounds, four assists, three steals and three blocks.

There are a few scenarios that could play out for the Minnesota Timberwolves until the start of next season. The first one is that the Wolves show a belief in

Most of the time when we run these SB Nation Reacts polls at Canis Hoopus, I have a pretty good idea where the results are headed before the votes even start rolling in. It is a product of spending time in the comments section, and understanding the mood of Wolves Nation. There are certain questions […]

The Los Angeles Sparks face one of the Eastern Conference’s top teams on Sunday when they take on the New York Liberty, looking to bounce back from two straight losses against tough competition in the red-hot Minnesota Lynx and Golden State Valkyries.

Washington rookie Cotie McMahon answered with a 3-pointer and Iriafen followed with two straight baskets in a 12-0 run as the Mystics (8-7) took an 82-76 lead.

The Washington Mystics have the youngest team in the WNBA. And they have now moved above .500 by defeating two championship contenders in back-to-back games. On Friday, they defeated the New York Liberty 86-83. And now, they defeated the Minnesota Lynx, the team currently leading in the standings, 84-79. Better yet, the Mystics are now […]

It is not easy to get on the nerves of veteran forward Natasha Howard. But when the Minnesota Lynx started to lose its lead over a rather young Washington Mystics, emotions flared up.

Olivia Miles continues to strengthen her case as the WNBA’s top rookie, even as one late mistake became the focus of debate following Minnesota’s latest loss.

Johnson is the second member of the WNBA’s 2026 rookie class to sign with Unrivaled, joining Minnesota Lynx rookie Oli

The Washington Mystics have really grown on their recent road trip after suffering some tough lessons early in the season. Washington has won three straight games on the road, including closing out victories late over New York and Minnesota. “I think it takes time to get to where you want to go,” said Washington forward Kiki Iriafen, who scored the go-ahead basket in the wins over both the Liberty and Lynx.

Brittney Griner scored a season-high 29 points and 10 rebounds as the Connecticut Sun held off the Minnesota Lynx 90-89 to delay Cheryl Reeve's wins record bid.
