Lynx will have 24 games televised this season

Fox Sports North will carry 17 of the games, with Marney Gellner and Lea B. Olsen calling the action. Getting more media coverage has been an issue that coach Cheryl Reeve has raised often.

Marney Gellner will be the play-by-play voice of the team on Fox Sports North's broadcasts and Lea B. Olsen will serve as analyst.

The Lynx will have seven games on ESPN2, meaning all home games will be on TV.

At the start of last season, FSN was planning to carry eight games but more were added as the season went on. Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve has in the past been critical of the past of the lack of television coverage for her team

"I think our fans deserve more," Reeve said last year, "and we have to find a way to make that happen."
