Maya Moore scored 31 points, pulled down nine rebounds and dished out five assists to lead the Lynx past Los Angeles 85-79 Sunday and force a decisive WNBA Finals Game 5 in Minneapolis Thursday.
The WNBA tweeted Sunday Moore “is putting on a clinic.” NBA.com labeled Moore’s performance “legendary.”
The buzz on social media after the Lynx Game 4 victory showered Moore with praise.
Once again Miss Moore proves she plays her game better than anyone else in town plays their game.
