Lynx star, WNBA MVP frontrunner Napheesa Collier exits blowout road win over Aces with right ankle injury
Late in the third quarter of a 111-58 win over the Las Vegas Aces, Minnesota Lynx star and WNBA MVP frontrunner Napheesa Collier left the game with a right ankle injury. Collier rolled her ankle while running into Lynx forward Alanna Smith, who, like Collier, was eying an offensive rebound. Collier's right foot collided with the back of Smith's left foot. After getting twisted up, Collier hit the deck. The Lynx took a timeout, and Aces star and three-time league MVP A'ja Wilson left the Vegas bench to help Collier stand up. Minnesota forward Jessica Sheppard gave the five-time All-Star forward a hand, too. But after Collier painfully got to her feet with their assistance, the Lynx's head athletic trainer told her to sit back down. Collier was ultimately able to walk gingerly off the court and into the locker room under her own power, albeit with an arm around the shoulder of the trainer. At the time, the Lynx were up 92-49 on the Aces, who had their reserves in the game from about midway through the third quarter on. Minnesota wound up winning by 53 points, recording the largest road win in WNBA history. The Lynx topped a previous-record-holding, 45-point road win registered by the Houston Comets in 1998, which was only the league's second year of competition. Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve was asked postgame if she has second thoughts about Collier still being in the game at the time of her injury, given Minnesota's massive lead. "No, I don't think about those things," Reeve said. "It's the third quarter of a game on someone else's floor. I don't think the game was over. I don't think like that. She had a sub there, and she wasn't going to play in the fourth quarter. Sometimes these things happen. And I get it. People are going to rail on me. That's part of sitting in the seat that I'm sitting in. But we did what we think was right, and sometimes these things happen — unfortunate, and hopefully she'll be OK." Collier scored just four points during a 67-point Lynx first half that featured lights out shooting from her teammates, including from five-time All-Star guard Kayla McBride, who tied a WNBA record with 8 made 3s in one half. Collier joined the scoring party in the third quarter when she recorded 14 points, giving her 18 on the day before she went down. A 2025 All-Star captain, Collier entered the weekend averaging a league-high 23.8 points per game. Her Lynx are a league-best 24-5.

Lynx star Napheesa Collier to undergo testing after injuring ankle vs. Aces
Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier left Saturday's eventual 111-58 victory over the Las Vegas Aces late in the third quarter after suffering a right ankle injury and did not return. Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve did not have an immediate update on Collier's status postgame, saying only that Collier will undergo further imaging and testing. 'I'm excited for the way that our team played, the way that we showed up today, and I'm also obviously concerned about Napheesa Collier,' Reeve said. 'We'll worry. We'll worry until we know more. There's no way around it. I can be both happy for our team and worried. Hoping for the best.' Minnesota's 53-point margin is the second-largest in WNBA history and is the largest margin of victory for a team on the road. The Houston Comets previously set the road margin of victory record (45) in 1998, according to Across the Timeline. Collier's injury occurred with just under 30 seconds remaining in the third quarter as she attempted to bring in an offensive rebound with Minnesota leading by 43 points. Collier was visibly in pain after suffering the injury as she walked off the court toward the locker room with assistance. She did not return to the bench in the fourth quarter, though guard Kayla McBride said that Collier was in 'good spirits' in the locker room afterward. 'The third quarter of a game on someone else's floor, I don't think the game is over,' said Reeve, when asked if she regretted not taking Collier out earlier. 'I don't think like that. She had a sub there, and she wasn't going to play in the fourth quarter. Sometimes these things happen, and I get it, people are gonna rail on me, and that's part of sitting in the seat that I'm sitting in. We did what we think is right, and sometimes these things happen. Unfortunate, and hopefully she'll be okay.' The Aces scored the game's first basket, but trailed throughout the remainder of the game. Collier finished with 18 points and three rebounds in 26 minutes. McBride led Minnesota with 24 points and became the only player in WNBA history to make eight 3s on 100 percent shooting in a half. The Lynx defeated the Aces by 31 points on July 25. On Saturday, in an even more lopsided result, four Minnesota players scored at least 15 points. No Aces player scored more than 12 points. Only Jewell Loyd and A'ja Wilson finished in double-figures as coach Becky Hammon relied on her bench for most of the second half. Collier is averaging 23.8 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. Not only is she the MVP front-runner, but her injury comes as Minnesota continues to widen the gap in league standings between itself and the WNBA's other 12 teams. The Lynx moved to 24-5 with the victory and have a six-game lead on the No. 2 New York Liberty. The Liberty, who are without star forward Breanna Stewart as she deals with a right knee injury, have a half-game lead on the No. 3 Atlanta Dream. Only 1 1/2 games separate New York and the sixth-seeded Seattle Storm. Minnesota travels to Seattle to play the Storm on Tuesday, Aug. 5. The Lynx then play Washington and three consecutive games against the Liberty. 'I thought we put a great 40 minutes together. Obviously, you hate to see anybody go down, but especially your MVP,' McBride said. 'We just wish the best for (Collier). We just want her to be healthy. 'She's had such an amazing season and she's just so impactful for us on both ends of the floor, but more than anything, we just want (Collier), the human being, to be okay.'

Man Utd striker Hojlund available for £30m
Manchester United are prepared to sell striker Rasmus Hojlund for £30m. The Denmark striker scored twice against Bournemouth in Chicago on Wednesday. Immediately after the game he sought out waiting journalists to say his intention was to remain at United despite their ongoing interest in signing RB Leipzig's Slovenia forward Benjamin Sesko. However, the situation is not quite so straightforward. Newcastle are also keen on Sesko but are yet to strike a deal with RB Leipzig for the 22-year-old. United are waiting to decide their next move and there have been reports that the player would prefer to switch to Old Trafford. United sources are adamant they could do a deal before selling players. But it is accepted that there would have to be exits to ensure they remain compliant with the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules. And, if Sesko arrived, Hojlund would be marginalised. If Hojlund was sold for £30m, it would effectively be a loss for United given the forward's 'book value' is £43m as he is two years into the five-year contract he signed. United have spent almost £130m this summer on Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha. Latest Manchester United news, analysis and fan views Get Man Utd news notifications
