Lynx at a glance: Seimone Augustus, the WNBA's third-leading scorer, suffered a sprained left knee in Wednesday's 104-80 loss at Phoenix. If she's out for a while, cancel the parade. Said coach Jen Gillom: "She had been the go-to player all season." Charde Houston and Nicky Anosike both scored 21 points for the Lynx (4-2) on Wednesday night. Houston (17.8) is the league's eighth-leading scorer.
Storm at a glance: C Lauren Jackson is second in the league in scoring (22.6) and 10th in rebounding (6.8). Swin Cash is in the starting lineup again after offseason back surgery. The Storm (3-2) is a half-game behind the Lynx and a game behind Western Conference-leading Phoenix.
