Lynx-Tulsa game preview

August 16, 2013 at 4:45AM

7 P.M. VS. TULSA • TARGET CENTER • no tv, 106.1-fm

Lynx at a glance: The Lynx (17-5) will look to rebound from a two-game skid against a Shock team they've already beaten three times this season and 14 times in a row. Janel McCarville, out with a head injury, practiced Wednesday and Thursday but is still classified as day-to-day. Lindsay Whalen is fifth in the league in scoring (18.2 points per game) during the past 10 games.

Shock at a glance: The Shock (7-17) are second to last in the WNBA in field-goal percentage defense while the Lynx average almost 47 percent shooting — second highest. Glory Johnson is third in the league in rebounding (9.5), and 6-8 Liz Cambage is third in blocks (2.2). The Shock has lost three in a row.
