WNBA Streak Watch

Streak Watch: Minnesota Lynx Have Won 11 Straight (WNBA)

Published

Somebody is always rolling and somebody is always spiraling, that is what makes a league a league. Here is the current WNBA streak board, longest runs first.

As of this morning, seven different teams are riding runs of three or more in one direction or the other, a busy board by any standard.

The teams stacking wins

Minnesota Lynx have won eleven straight, the longest active run in the league. Winning streaks change how a club carries itself, every bounce feels earned, every close game feels like it belongs to them until somebody proves otherwise.

Indiana Fever carry a 7-game winning run of their own.

Add Atlanta Dream to the list too, 6 in a row.

Stuck in the barrel

Los Angeles Sparks cannot find the exit: eight consecutive losses and counting. The schedule keeps coming regardless, which is either mercy or cruelty depending on the next opponent.

Toronto Tempo are on a slide of their own at 6 straight losses.

Connecticut Sun round out the skid list at 4 in a row.

The fine print

The longest run on the board sits at 11 games, and runs that size have a way of bending a whole week's storylines around them, every broadcast, every pregame note, every nervous manager quote.

None of these runs are forever. Enjoy them as stories, count them honestly, and remember the results table starts blank again tomorrow.

The schedule cooperates, too, Minnesota Lynx face Portland Fire next, so this story gets its next chapter almost immediately.
