MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Minnesota Lynx center Sylvia Fowles has had a dominant season so far, and she earned another WNBA honor on Wednesday.
Fowles was named the Western Conference Player of the Month. She's helped lead the Lynx to a 12-1 start, the best record in the league.
It's the second monthly award for Fowles this season and seventh of her career, tying her with Maya Moore for the most all-time.
