Minnesota Lynx - the end of the 2018 Season: WBNA All-Star Game and the retirement of #13 Lindsay Whalen

Image
Sadly, the Minnesota Lynx's season ended this week with a  playoff loss in Los Angeles against the Sparks. It wasn't the best season they've had, but one that had the WNBA All-Star Game in Minneapolis and Minnesota's own, Lindsay Whalen, retire on a win. I was fortunate enough to be at both of these games, along with some pretty crazy, intense and devoted Lynx fans. If you haven't been to a Lynx game, I would totally recommend it next year. There is a total lovefest between the Lynx and the fans; after all, they have the most championships of any pro team in Minnesota (four) and they have made a huge contribution to the community. Below are some photos of the last regular game of the season and from the tribute to #13 Whalen as well as the ceremony where #23 Maya Moore won her 3rd All-Star MVP Award. See you next season.
