Megdal opens the show by recapping some of the action from Game 5 between the Lynx and the Sun. “Minnesota gets off to a big start, you know?” Megdal says. “And it’s tough to overcome…” As Megdal acknowledges, the Sun chipped away at the difference, but “Minnesota turned it on. … And this was not a contested game.”
Later on, Megdal focuses on the upcoming finals between the Lynx and the Liberty, and specifically shines a light on what the Liberty have to offer. “Well, [Jonquel] Jones just continues to amaze,” Megdal says. “Try and stop her. She’s 6’6.”
