TIPSHEET

KNOW THIS

There are a lot of impressive things about what the Lynx have accomplished from 2011-present, but this statistic stands out: In those seven years, going into Game 5 of the WNBA Finals on Wednesday against Los Angeles, Minnesota has a 39-15 record in playoff games.

WATCH THIS

Adding to that playoff legacy will be no easy task for the Lynx against the Sparks, but you're going to want to watch this winner-take-all game from Williams Arena. 7 p.m., ESPN.
