Sun extends the series with a victory over Lynx

After game 1 of this series, I told y'all we were in for a classic. Despite being down, Alyssa Thomas and Ty Harris helped Connecticut force a decisive Game 5 by winning 92-82 with the season on the line

A.T. had 18 points, 11 assists and 8 rebounds and she wasn't alone. Harris had 20 points on 4-5 shooting from the outside to help the Sun stay alive and beat the Minnesota Lynx 92-82 on Sunday in their semifinal series. The victory set up a winner-take-all fifth game Tuesday night in Minnesota.

Napheesa Collier had an impressive game with 29 points and 13 rebounds. However, she didn't get much help offensively from her Lynx teammates. The Lynx struggled to find consistent scoring beyond Collier, with the rest of the team shooting poorly from the field. Their lack of ball movement and inability to create open shots contributed to their offensive woes. Additionally, the Sun's defensive pressure seemed to disrupt their rhythm, making it difficult for other players to step up and support Collier.

Game 5 is crucial for both teams as it will determine who advances to the finals. For Connecticut, a win would mean overcoming adversity and proving their resilience. Meanwhile, Minnesota will be fighting to capitalize on their home-court advantage and continue their quest for another championship title.
