Sky beat Lynx in Minnesota’s first exhibition game

The Chicago Sky beat the Lynx 74-69 in their first exhibition game of the WNBA season on Tuesday night at Wintrust Arena in Chicago.

Minnesota slightly outscored the Chicago team in the second and third quarters, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the Sky’s strong first and final efforts.

Alanna Smith was the Lynx’s top scorer with 10 points, nine rebounds, four assists, and a steal. Alissa Pili proved a good add from the bench, shooting 100% and making three three-pointers.

The Lynx’s exhibition season continues with another game against the Sky, this time at home, on Saturday at the Target Center.
