The Minnesota Lynx scored one of the biggest wins of the 2025 WNBA season on Wednesday night as they took down the 2024 WNBA champion New York Liberty at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

The win cemented the Lynx as a team to watch heading down the stretch of the season with the 2025 Playoffs scheduled to begin on Sunday, September 14.

Wednesday's game included a big performance from Lynx forward Napheesa Collier, who dueled with Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu all evening, helping her team to pull out the win.

Collier finished with 30 points in a 100-93 win, one fewer than Ionescu.

She was asked what her goals for the rest of the season are by veteran ESPN reporter Holly Rowe, and did not hesitate to give a clear one-word answer.

"What's the goal, Phee?" Rowe asked.

"Championship," the Lynx star forward replied.
