MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Lynx are back in the WNBA Finals for the first time in seven years behind their unassuming and unflappable superstar Napheesa Collier. She had 27 points on 10-for-16 shooting, 11 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal in a vintage performance in the Game 5 win over Connecticut in the semifinals. Collier was fifth in the league in scoring and third in rebounding this season. She also won the WNBA Defensive Player of the Year award. The Lynx have raved about her consistency and humility. Collier and the Lynx face the New York Liberty in the finals.
