Rookie Olivia Miles scored 15 points and handed out 6 assists to power the Minnesota Lynx to a 90-86 comeback win over the Dallas Wings in Arlington, Texas. Minnesota erased a 12-point deficit behind Paige Bueckers' 27 points and 8 assists and Natasha Howard's 26 points and 3 blocks, while Miles supplied a tying layup, a go-ahead assist to Howard, and a late defensive play to preserve the lead. The victory pushes the Lynx to 2-1 and cements Miles' hot start; she is averaging 15 points and 5 assists through her first three WNBA games, joining Caitlin Clark, Candace Parker, Sue Bird, and Nikki McCray in that company.
