and the Lynx won while allowing Napheesa to get alot of rest. Only played 38:45. One of her lowest minutes.Collier had an off shooting night but otherwise played great. 18/10/4 assists/5 blocks. Syl had 20 points on 9/10 shooting, 11 rebounds, 3 steals. Achonwa and Dangerfield are both back for the Lynx. Howard back for the Liberty, too, and looking great. Ionescu and Whitcomb both played well too.
Diamond has scored 8, more than Parker and Sloot combined. For a great player, Parker too often just completely disappears. Which other superstar routinely has games where she's invisible? Sloot's shooting has been dismal to start up after the break, but she's racking up the assists still.I'm done with Diamond.
She doesn't have the mentality to be great. Every time things don't go her way she's sulks and takes plays off.
Sloot is off but she's at least playing hard.Diamond has scored 8, more than Parker and Sloot combined. For a great player, Parker too often just completely disappears.

edit--Dallas outscoring Chi 39-24 in the 2nd half, time is running out; up 12 w/ 4 minutes left
No, not Parker.Parker was just lazy tonight.
Probably spent 8 of those minutes complaining to the refs.@Orangutan did Parker get benched? Only played 16 minutes.

Merc edged the Fever. Griner and Taurasi combined for 47 points and 19-20 FT shooting.
edit--wow, Diggins-Smith only played 1 minute, did she get injured?
It looks like an injury, and not a good one at that. It's the first highlight after the jumpball.
