How did the Minnesota Lynx do last WNBA season?
The Minnesota Lynx had a standout 2024 WNBA season, finishing with a 30–10 record—the best in the Western Conference and their strongest showing since 2017. Their impressive campaign was highlighted by winning the franchise’s first-ever Commissioner’s Cup title with a 94–89 victory over the New York Liberty, where Napheesa Collier earned MVP honors.
In the playoffs, the Lynx swept the Phoenix Mercury in the first round and went on to edge out the Connecticut Sun in a tightly contested semifinal series.
