Summary
Minnesota moved back atop the WNBA power rankings at 21-6 after a 105-102 win at Seattle extended its winning streak to six games.
Kayla McBride drove that surge with 33 points Monday—her seventh straight 20-point game—while Olivia Miles added 32 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.
Golden State slipped from No. 1 to No. 2 despite a 19-8 record after Washington ended the Valkyries' nine-game winning streak 90-82, fueled by a 36-point fourth quarter.
New York stayed eighth but halted a four-game slide with a 99-98 overtime win over Dallas, improving to 14-12 despite a 3-8 month and injuries to Satou Sabally and Leonie Fiebich.
The reshuffle comes just before the league pauses after Wednesday's seven-game slate for Saturday's All-Star Game, with regular-season play resuming July 28.
