The Minnesota Lynx (12-5) are looking for a third win in a row Friday night, when they meet the Dallas Wings (6-11) on Friday night.

After defeating the Los Angeles Sparks on Monday and earning a playoff berth on Tuesday, the Lynx continued their strong play with a win over the Chicago Sky on Wednesday. Lynx center Damiris Dantas was the star of the show on Wednesday, putting up a career-high 28 points and seven rebounds in the victory. Rookie guard Crystal Dangerfield continues to impress, posting 15 points and seven assists against Chicago.

Dallas fell to the Los Angeles Sparks, 91-83, on Wednesday night but are still looking to clinch the final WNBA playoff berth this season.  Second-year guard Arike Ogunbowale led the team with 17 points in the game, while forward Satou Sabally earned a double-double by contributing 16 points and 11 rebounds.

The last time these two met, Minnesota took the victory, 91-84. Napheesa Collier and Crystal Dangerfield had a combined 39 points in the win.
