Lynx gameday

7 P.M. AT SAN ANTONIO • NO TV, 106.1-FM

Lynx update: The Lynx's offense may have finally clicked in the second half of Tuesday's victory at Los Angeles. Down five at the half, the Lynx outscored the Sparks by 20 points in the second half. F Maya Moore scored 18 of her 22 points in the second half. G Seimone Augustus had 20 points. The Lynx beat the Stars in the Western Conference semifinals last season. G Monica Wright (calf) is questionable.

Stars update: The Stars, who have made the playoffs in only seven of their 12 years in San Antonio, are 0-4. The past two losses — both to Tulsa — have come by 11 or more points. The Stars rank last in the league in field goal percentage (36.6), ninth in scoring (65.8) and are allowing 77.3 points per game. G Jia Perkins (14.3) and G/F Kayla McBride (13.5) lead the Stars in scoring. But both are shooting under 35 percent from the field.

The WNBA and its players' union weren't able to agree to a new collective bargaining agreement by the Friday night deadline, and now the league enters a ''status-quo'' period with no new extension reached.
