Wednesday night the Minnesota Lynx will play the Golden State Valkyries in Game 2 of the WNBA playoffs. As the playoffs heat up, MPR News’ Emily Reese is reaching out a hand from the Lynx bandwagon and sharing everything new fans may want to know.

First, we learned about the revenge tour: the Lynx are motivated to become champions this year after a loss attributed to a bad call last year. Then, we got to know the team’s starters.

This time, Reese joins Minnesota Now to talk about the StudBudz, Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman, and why their viral, but very real friendship means so much to fans.
