Minnesota Lynx

For the last decade, this has been the barbecue to be at. Everyone wanted an invite to the prestigious showing in a grand mansion with double staircases and world-renowned cuisine surrounding a hot tub and in-ground pool. But for the first time in a long time, it’s not the place to be. A tarp’s over the water.

Maya Moore, the team’s centerpiece is taking the season off for personal reasons, Hall of Famer Lindsay Whalen retired, and these Lynx aren’t the same. That doesn’t mean they’re giving up, though, and real fans will stick through this rebranding. Former MVP Sylvia Fowles and legend Seimone Augustus are back, and key acquisitions Kaleena Christmas-Kelly and Odyssey Sims will make this party worthwhile. The rager is far from canceled.

Coach Cheryl Reeve will get this group through it. Welcome to one of the best fandoms in the entire WNBA.
