Liberty beat Lynx in OT, win first WNBA title on sixth try
The Lynx were trying for a record fifth WNBA title to break a tie with the Storm and the Houston Comets. Minnesota won four titles from 2011-17 behind the core group of Seimone Augustus, Rebekkah Brunson, Sylvia Fowles, Maya Moore and Lindsay Whalen. That was the franchise's most recent appearance in the WNBA Finals until this year.
