After the Minnesota Lynx eliminated the Connecticut Sun in five games earlier this week, the WNBA Finals matchup was set. The Lynx will take on the New York Liberty for the W crown in a five-game series that begins on Thursday and could stretch all the way to Sunday, October 20.
The Liberty return to the Finals after falling to the Las Vegas Aces in last year's edition in four games. The Lynx, meanwhile, are back in the final round after making six such appearances between 2011 and 2017. They won four WNBA titles in that span.
