Minnesota Lynx history
Minneapolis welcomed the Lynx ahead of the 1999 season, and they play in the Western Conference at Target Center, which holds 18,798. For years Glen Taylor owned both the Lynx and the NBA's Timberwolves, from 1999 to 2025. Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore are the owners now.
Then came a dynasty. Minnesota won the WNBA title in 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017, four championships in seven years. Key players on those teams included Seimone Augustus, Maya Moore, Rebekkah Brunson, Sylvia Fowles and Lindsay Whalen, a Minnesota native. Katie Smith also wore a Lynx jersey earlier in the franchise's run. In all, the club has made the playoffs in 15 of its 26 seasons, and that four-title total puts it among the most decorated teams in the league.
