The best tour of the best of the three will end on Friday or and the semi-finals of the best of five will start on Sunday (September 21).

The Lynx, which knocked out the eighth seeded Golden State Valkyries in the first round, entered the playoffs as a seeded n ° 1 after being the most dominant team in the WNBA throughout the regular 44 -game season. The lynx, looking for the fifth championship in the history of the team and their first since 2017,, will have a home advantage throughout the playoffs.
