The 2024 Minnesota Lynx season is the 26th season for the Minnesota Lynx of the Women's National Basketball Association, and the fifteenth season under head coach Cheryl Reeve.

The season tipped-off on Tuesday, May 14, 2024, in Seattle against the Seattle Storm.[1]

The Lynx went 4–1 in the WNBA Commissioner's Cup Western Conference standings, and clinched a spot in the Cup Final against the New York Liberty on June 13, 2024.[2] This is the first time in the Lynx history that they represented the Western Conference in the Cup, since it started in 2021. Napheesa Collier was named MVP of the 2024 WNBA Commissioner's Cup Final, as the Lynx defeated the Liberty 94-89.[3]

Cheryl Reeve was named the Coach of the Year and Napheesa Collier was named the Defensive Player of the Year on September 22, 2024.[4] Collier was also named to the AP All-WNBA First team.[4]

The Lynx wrapped the season having won 14 out of the 16 games after the Olympic break. The team had the highest number of assists per game and highest three-point shooting percentage in the league.[5] A little over 76% of their baskets were done with an assist in the regular season.[6] They finished the regular season with a 30–10 record and headed into the playoffs ranked second in the league.[7]

The players have noted the early chemistry of the team even with several players added to the roster this season.[8] Alanna Smith on this year's team: "We've all acknowledged that we've never been on a team quite like what we are now and it's kind of fitting we've drawn it out as long as possible, with both series' going to five games, because we don't want to leave each other," Smith laughs.

"We've all had so much fun playing together, it's been an absolute joy to be around this team, the coaches and staff. It's really rare to be a part of something like this and it's really rare to experience that and also win as well."[9]

Seimone Augustus commented on the 2024 team chemistry and culture: "Every player kind of resembles one of the players from the original dynasty team, as far as their game and how they approach the game. Even their character, their personalities, I’m like, ‘We’re back, we’re back in the mix‘."[10]

Playoffs

In the postseason opener against the Phoenix Mercury at Target Center on September 22, 2024, the Lynx made playoff history by having seven players with 3+ assists. This had never happened in the playoffs and only happened six times in the regular season.[11] The team also had the largest assist rate in WNBA playoffs history with 30 assists on 34 field goals made.[12] The Lynx won over the Mercury with a score of 102-95.[13] The Lynx swept the Mercury by winning the second game on September 25, 2024, with a score of 101–88, advancing to the semifinals against the Connecticut Sun.[14] In these two games, the Lynx set the highest amount of assists on field goals made (FGM) with 58 assists on 68 FGM (85.3% of makes assisted on).[15]

Semifinals

With the Lynx win against the Sun on October 8, 2024, in game 5 of the semifinals, the Lynx have the most postseason wins in WNBA history (with 48).[16] In this same game, the Lynx set another league record by having three players in a postseason game have 16+ field goal attempts while shooting 50+%.[17] The three Lynx players were Napheesa Collier, Courtney Williams, and Kayla McBride. The Lynx went to the finals for the seventh time, the most in WNBA history.[18]

Finals

In Game 1 of the finals against the New York Liberty on October 10, 2024, the Lynx became the first WNBA team in postseason history to win after trailing by 15+ points in the final five minutes of regulation.[19] The Lynx won in overtime 95-93.[20] The Lynx also became the first team to win a WNBA finals game in overtime on the road.[21] The trio of Napheesa Collier, Kayla McBride, and Courtney Williams became the first in Lynx history to each score 20+ points in a finals game.[22] The game had the highest number of viewers of any WNBA Finals Game 1 with 1.1 milliion viewers and 1.5 million viewers at the peak.[23]
