Bridget Carleton scored 23 points and Collier added 21 to help the Lynx win their first Commissioner's Cup championship with a 94-89 victory over the New York Liberty on Tuesday night. “Means a lot. Testament to where we are at this season,” Collier said. “This is the best group. Our personalities mesh so well. Any night anyone can have 20. Bridget had an outstanding game. It’s so fun.” The Lynx became the fourth different team to win the Cup in the event's four-year history and continued the trend of the host team losing. New York was trying to be the first to repeat as champions after winning in Las Vegas last season. “It’s really good, always want to win championships,” Collier said. “This is a championship we won, but there’s still work to be done. A lot of games to be played. We want to build on this. We don’t want to peak here. This is amazing at the end of the day we want to achieve bigger things than this at the end of the season." The game was tied at 60 late in the third quarter when Carleton and Cecilia Zandalasini hit consecutive 3-pointers to start a 10-0 run that spanned the periods. Breanna Stewart scored nine straight points to get the Liberty within 70-69, but they could never regain the lead. Courtney Williams and Carleton scored the next five points for Minnesota and New York never really threatened again. “What I’m proud of is we answered every run on the road and that tells you everything about our basketball team,” Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve said. Collier, who also had six rebounds and three assists, won the game’s MVP award. Stewart scored 24 points and Sabrina Ionescu added 23. “I think that they executed better than us and that’s it, both ends of the floor,” Stewart said. “We weren’t able to get anything we wanted. Twenty-one turnovers is never going to win the game.” Jonquel Jones, who has been fantastic for the Liberty all season, struggled on Tuesday night. She missed all three of her field-goal attempts and didn't score until hitting two free throws with 1:20 left. “JJ has been playing great, they really took her out of the game, made it hard for her to catch the ball,” Liberty coach Sandy Brondello said. The game was moved from the Liberty's usual home Barclays Center to UBS Arena — about 20 miles away — because the NBA draft was being held there Wednesday night and there wasn't enough time to changeover the arena after the game. Even though it wasn't their normal home, the Liberty faithful showed up and were loud, trying to spur on their team to victory. New York built a 47-37 lead midway through the second quarter before the Lynx scored eight straight points to get within two. The Liberty led 50-47 at the break as Ionescu had 18 points and Kayla Thornton 14. The Liberty welcomed back Courtney Vandersloot, who hadn't played since June 4 to be with her mom who passed away two weekends ago. She checked in for the first time with 3:30 left in the opening quarter and finished with four points. “Shows a lot about who she is and how much she cares about being a part of this team,” Ionescu said. “Wanting to sacrifice to suit up and be available to us. Credit to her, it's so tough to do what she's doing." New York also saw the return of Betnijah-Laney Hamilton, who had been sidelined with right knee soreness for the past week. She was back in the starting lineup, finishing with 13 points. FINANCIAL INCENTIVE The teams for the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup will split a prize pool of $500,000. Players on Minnesota can make up to $30,000 while each player on New York makes $10,000. Every player competing will also receive $5,000 in crypto currency. There was also a charitable component with New York raising $15,000 for Women Creating Change and Minnesota earning $13,500 for Gender Justice. The Lynx earned an additional $10,000 for their charity by winning and the Liberty received $5,000 for finishing second. ------ AP WNBA: https://apnews.com/hub/wnba-basketball Top 10 Inventions Maxresdefault Hqdefault C601584a5bb1c31593106b77e25d58f3 Inventions Of The 21st Century Infographic 1536x1536 Maxresdefault Inventions Geneva Genf 2023 Maxresdefault B68779a7 E27f 405c 9bf0 9c5b56ed4545 Nasa Ingenuity ?w=2000&h=1090&fit=crop&crop=faces&auto=format%2Ccompress&q=50&dpr=2 Maxresdefault Maxresdefault Best Inventions Combined ?quality=85 0x0 ?format=jpg&height=900&width=1600&fit=bounds Maxresdefault NqKhnCMUwFVaq7UhA4AMQg 1200 80 Maxresdefault 20230119171859396511 New Technology Inventions AI 1536x878 New Technology Inventions Telp L Intro 1690564326 Thumb 1200 2903 1222633098902693703 Features Scaled E1680392889736 Maxresdefault Imageforentry7 Eef Dac44b2623c66d6099f3aed85cd71f65 Pdas 1690564326 Untitled Design 3 1 Best Inventions Time 1536x791 C4105ceff21ee796e982e31af61a97bb ?resize=650,400 NVIDIA AND Mercedes Benz 2 E1592953823583 Admin 1673277129
