On Sunday evening, the Minnesota Lynx, fresh off an authoritative Saturday afternoon home win over the New York Liberty, arrived in Atlanta to take on the Dream.
Swish Appeal’s contributing photographer Christina Merrion was there to capture the action, which was highlighted by Kayla McBride going 6-for-7 from 3 and 10-for-12 overall as she scored a game-high 31 points to lead to the Lynx to the 92-79 win.
Let’s allow Christina’s photos to the tell the story of game:
