UNCASVILLE, CT — Minnesota Lynx point guard Olivia Miles will miss her second consecutive game because of a right calf injury.
The Lynx play the Connecticut Sun for the second time this week, this time at Mohegan Sun Arena. Miles last played in a loss to the New York Liberty on July 3. She left the game early because of cramping.
Miles, the favorite for Rookie of the Year, has started 20 games for the league-leading Lynx, averaging 18.5 points, 5.7 assists and 4.8 rebounds in 30.5 minutes. She was the No. 2 overall pick in the WNBA draft out of TCU.
Teammate Napheesa Collier is also out, but is expected to return soon from the ankle injury sustained in the postseason last fall.
Wednesday night's game against Connecticut (5-16) will also be another chance for Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve to break the record for most regular-season wins in WNBA history. Both Reeve and coach Mike Thibault, longtime coach of the Sun, have 379 wins.
