MVP Frontrunner Napheesa Collier Leaves During Lynx’s 53-Point Blowout Win over Aces
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, AUG 2 – Kayla McBride made 8 of 10 three-pointers as the Lynx set the WNBA record for largest road win by 53 points, while MVP frontrunner Napheesa Collier left with an ankle injury.
- On Saturday, the Minnesota Lynx secured a 111-58 win over the Las Vegas Aces in Las Vegas, but their forward and MVP candidate Napheesa Collier suffered a right ankle injury and had to exit the game.
- Collier's injury occurred late in the third quarter after she appeared to step on a teammate’s foot, causing her to sit down in pain amid concern from both teams.
- The Lynx, led by a record 17 three-pointers and a 92-49 lead entering the fourth quarter, maintained their league-best record of 24-5 despite losing their 2025 All-Star MVP on the court.
- Coach Cheryl Reeve said, "It's just way too early" to assess Collier's condition and declined to speculate on MRI timing or whether Collier would travel to Seattle for the next game.
- The victory set a WNBA record for the largest road win margin at 53 points, while the Lynx plan to continue evaluating Collier's injury before their next game in Seattle on Tuesday.
