Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 4645451, member: 6620"] Two pre-season games on Friday, May 5: [B]Minnesota Lynx beat Washington Mystics, 72-69[/B] Lynx won the game because/despite starting two rookies...and getting good results from them. Perhaps the most solid performance was UConn alum [B]Dorkha Juhasz[/B]'s 11 pts (4-7 from the floor) and 10 rebounds. Both [B]Diamond Miller [/B](Maryland) and[B] Napheesa Collier[/B] shot 5-12 from the field. However, Miller got the line a lot (8-12) and finished with 19 points, while 'Phee had 10 points, but also snagged 8 rebounds. The Mystics started vets and brought new players/rookies off the bench. [B]Evina Westbrook[/B] (UConn) scored 7 points and grabbed 3 rebounds in 25 minutes of playing time, while newly signed [B]Emily Engstle[/B]r, in 8 minutes, scored 4 points and had 4 rebounds. [B]Dallas Wings beat Chicago Sky, 75-70[/B] Both teams started vets/familiar names, with the Wings being led by T[B]eaira McCowan[/B]'s 17 points and 8 rebounds,[B] Natasha Howard[/B]'s 11 points and 8 rebounds and [B]Arike Ogunbowale[/B]'s 10 points. While [B]Veronica Burton[/B] started, played just under 20 minutes and contributed 8 points and 4 assists, [B]Crystal Dangerfield[/B] had 9 points and 4 assists in just over 20 minutes. Chicago played without Ruby Hebard and Marina Mabrey. [/QUOTE]
