The Liberty shot 25 free throws, while the Lynx went 7-for-8. Minnesota was called for 21 fouls to New York’s 17, with All-Star forward Napheesa Collier, the WNBA’s Defensive Player of the Year, fouling out.

“This is for a championship, for both teams. Let them decide it. What contact is legal should be the same for both teams.”
