The Minnesota Lynx just survived a close call to keep their winning streak alive as they continue to fight for the top spot in the Western Conference. A showdown looms against the team it's chasing for first place, but Minnesota doesn't plan on looking past a Chicago Sky team that has seemed invigorated by the return of Elena Delle Donne. The Lynx shoot for an 11th consecutive victory Thursday night as the visiting Sky look to win a fourth straight since getting Delle Donne back. Minnesota (23-6) trails first-place Phoenix by 1 1/2 games in the West, and the clubs will meet for the final time in the regular season Saturday in Arizona.
