  "account": "Minnesota's Kayla McBride shattered the WNBA record by draining an astonishing ten three-pointers and scoring a career-high 43 points, as the Lynx defeated the Dallas Wings 103-90 on Sunday, securing their playoff spot. This marked the first time a team had clinched a playoff berth in the league's history. The Lynx, who set a franchise record with 18 made three-pointers, won 12 of their last 13 games. McBride's 10-of-14 attempts from beyond the arc were instrumental in the victory, with Olivia Miles contributing 20 points and 13 assists, Napheesa Collier scoring 17, and Natasha Howard adding 12 points and 12 rebounds. Dallas All-Star Jessica Shepard was forced to leave the game early due to an ankle injury and never returned. The Lynx now have a commanding lead over their rivals heading into the postseason.",
