Randallstown native has double-digit points and rebounds for 10th straight game
Kayla McBride scored 16 points, Napheesa Collier had 13 points and 11 rebounds, and the Minnesota Lynx spoiled a record-setting day from Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese, rallying for a 70-62 victory Sunday.
Reese broke a WNBA single-season record with her 10th straight double-double, finishing with 10 points and 16 rebounds. Candace Parker of the Los Angeles Sparks set the previous record in 2015.
McBride made two 3-pointers and added five rebounds and five assists for the Western Conference-leading Lynx (14-4), who were coming off a 94-88 loss at last-place Dallas which ended their seven-game winning streak.
Collier had six assists while recording her 11th double-double of the season. Alanna Smith had 11 points and seven rebounds.
Reese had a poor shooting day, going 4 of 16 from the floor and 2 of 4 from the free-throw line. She got to 10 points on the second of two free throws with 23 seconds to play.
Chennedy Carter scored 15 points for the Sky. Lindsay Allen made three 3-pointers and scored 13, adding seven assists and six rebounds. Marina Mabrey scored 11 on 4-of-17 shooting.
The Lynx trailed by 51-42 on a jumper by Carter with 2:58 left in the third quarter but cut the deficit to five at the end of the period on a long jumper at the buzzer by Collier.
The Lynx clamped down defensively in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Sky 18-5.
A three-point play by Courtney Williams put the Lynx up 61-59 with 3:14 to go. McBride sank four straight free throws and Minnesota maintained a two-possession lead over the final two minutes.
The Lynx held the Sky to 30.5% shooting from the floor after allowing the last-place Wings to shoot 48.7%, make 9 of 15 from beyond the arc and score the most points against them this season.
The Sky selected Reese with the No. 7 pick in the WNBA draft, a spot Minnesota traded down from.
The Sky fell to 3-7 at home.
