Griner and Burke Seal Thriller | WNBA News
Description
Brittney Griner dropped a season-high 29 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, while Kennedy Burke exploded off the bench with 16 points—including two clutch threes in the final 90 seconds—to lead the Connecticut Sun to a nail-biting 90-89 victory over the shorthanded Minnesota Lynx. With Griner’s layup and Burke’s ice-cold three sealing the win, Diamond Miller’s key block and the Sun’s balanced attack—including 13 from Leila Lacan and 10 points/8 rebounds from Olivia Nelson-Ododa—proved decisive. Despite 28 points from Kayla McBride and 23 points/9 rebounds/6 assists from Courtney Williams, the Lynx fell short without Napheesa Collier and Olivia Miles. Dorka Juhasz made her season debut with 3 points. The teams square off again Wednesday in Connecticut.
