The Lynx built off the momentum of their overtime win over the Sun to start their first winning streak of the season in a convincing 83-57 romp over the Sparks.
Seimone Augustus became the second fastest player to reach 1,000 career points. But she had an off shooting night, connecting on only 5-15 from the floor. That did not matter as much as four other players joined her in double figures, led by 16 from Kristen Mann.
"At the beginning of the season the only one making any shots was Seimone [Augustus]," Mann said. "We're not going to be successful when that happens." Seimone finished with five assists, including two consecutive kick outs to Svetlana Abrosimova for three pointers that brought the crowd to their feet.
