Perfection, Thy Name Is Lynx: Minnesota Beats San Antonio 83-79

1Seven up, seven down.

The Minnesota Lynx were the only team in the WNBA with a perfect record coming into Sunday, and that perfection was maintained as they beat the San Antonio Silver Stars 83-79 at home despite being outscored 26-16 in the final quarter. The Lynx became the sixth team in WNBA history to begin a season with seven straight wins.

Maya Moore and Rebekkah Brunson each had 7 points while Minnesota native Lindsey Whalen had 15 points and seven assists. Seimone Augustus also had 14.

Brunson hit on a pair of free throws with a second left to give the Lynx some breathing room and secure the win after a stellar fourth quarter by San Antonio.

Danielle Adams had 21 points for San Antonio as they fell short in their furious comeback.

WNBA Scores: Minnesota Lynx Stay Perfect, Take Out Previously Undefeated Connecticut Sun

The Minnesota Lynx haven't been challenged often this season, but Friday night's matchup looked pretty solid on paper as they were going on the road to face a fellow undefeated team in the Connecticut Sun. The game was good for three quarters, but in the end it was the Lynx that left with their perfect season still intact.

Minnesota, now 6-0 on the season, was led by 23 points from Seimone Augustus in the 85-72 victory. Rebekkah Brunson was perhaps more instrumental in the victory, however, as the post player picked up a double-double with 14points and 13 rebounds as the Lynx outrebounded Connecticut 12-4 in the final quarter.

Connecticut dropped to 3-1 on the season despite the best efforts of center Tina Charles as she scored 20 points and 12 rebounds in the loss. Renee Montgomery came off the bench to score 16 points, but made just four of her 15 shot attempts from the field.
