Minnesota Individual Notes

The Lynx were led by Damiris Dantas who tallied a playoff career-high 23 points. She also grabbed seven rebounds and dished out four assists in a team-high 34:50 minutes.

Dantas joins Lindsay Whalen (8/23/14 vs San Antonio), Maya Moore (9/27/15 vs Phoenix and 10/16/16 vs Los Angeles) and Sylvia Fowles (9/14/17 vs Washington) as the only Lynx players to tally 23+ points/7+ rebounds/4+ assists in a playoff game.

Crystal Dangerfield tallied 10 points and seven rebounds, becoming the first Lynx rookie to have such a stat line in a playoff game, per Across the Timeline. The seven dimes are the most by a Lynx player in the playoffs since Lindsay Whalen had eight in Game 5 of the 2017 Finals.
