Minnesota Lynx vs Dallas Wings Final Score & Over/Under Result — May 14, 2026

The third quarter became the decisive stretch, as Minnesota and Dallas combined for 50 points—the game's highest-scoring frame—to create separation that the Wings could not overcome. Lynx forward Natasha Howard led the charge with 26 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists, while Courtney Williams added 21 points and 5 rebounds to power a second-half surge that proved decisive in the 90–86 victory.

Dallas had hung tight through halves of identical scoring: both teams combined for 88 points in the first half and another 88 in the second. But Minnesota's third-quarter dominance, during which it outpaced Dallas in the quarter's combined output, proved the difference. Paige Bueckers led the Wings with 27 points and 8 assists, and Maddy Siegrist contributed 17 points, but they could not quite match the Lynx's fourth-quarter control. Olivia Miles added 15 points and 6 assists off the bench for Minnesota as depth tilted the scale.

The game landed at 176 combined points—2.5 below the market total of 178.5. DAGGER leaned under pregame, and it cashed. Minnesota's defense, allowing 76.8 per game over its last ten contests, held up despite Dallas averaging 89.3 points in that same span, keeping the total compressed enough to land beneath the number.
