The WNBA Playoffs are closing out the first round, and either Minnesota or Los Angeles will be advancing to play Phoenix in the Conference Finals. 

We have just two games left int he first round of the WBA Playoffs, and tonight either the Lynx or the Sparks will advance to play the Phoenix Mercury with a shot in the WNBA Finals on the line. It’s going to be an epic showdown no matter who gets a shot at Brittany Griner and the Mercury, and tonight’s showdown is a nice precursor to that matchup.

The Lynx are one of the best teams in the WNBA and have consistently been at the top of their game over the last half decade, but they’re in a position to get bounced out of the postseason before the Finals. As for the Sparks, they need to win tonight to further establish themselves as a force in the WNBA and not just a team that is always on the cusp of something specials.

Here’s a look at the current and updated bracket as we enter Game 3 between the Lynx and Sparks:
