The Minnesota Lynx have ruled out star forward Napheesa Collier for their game against the Phoenix Mercury due to knee issues that have persisted since 2023. Although initially listed as questionable, Collier’s absence marks her first missed game of the season, where she averages 26.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, and three assists. The Lynx, currently on a five-game winning streak, will face the Mercury, who recently won against the Chicago Sky, with a highly anticipated face-off between Collier and fellow star Satou Sabally scheduled for June 3.
