Minnesota Lynx showed improved defensive identity in rematch with Chicago Sky
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">CHICAGO — In the moments after Minnesota’s 86-79 loss to the Chicago Sky at Target Center in Minneapolis on May 17, Lynx head coach and president of basketball operations Cheryl Reeve didn’t mince words assessing her team’s performance. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">“Chicago’s a better team than we are right now,” Reeve said. “When I watched the video, I was struck by their cohesion, their identity defensively, very, very strong. Give them credit. They got us sort of out of sorts and sort of unaware how to play against it.” </p>
