SPARKS TONIGHT

at Minnesota, 5 PDT

Site -- Target Center.

Radio -- 1150 (delayed until 7 p.m.)

Records--Sparks 3-1; Lynx 0-3.

Record vs. Lynx (2005) -- 2-2.

Update -- The Lynx are expected to contend for a playoff berth, but have stumbled out of the gate. Rookie Seimone Augustus is living up to expectations, averaging 19.7 points and shooting 45.7%. No other Minnesota player is averaging more than 8.3 points. And the Lynx are not handling the ball well either, averaging 13.3 assists and 17 turnovers. At least the Lynx will be rested for tonight’s game, having last played on Saturday at Washington. The Sparks came to Minneapolis late Tuesday night following their victory in Chicago.
