Emma Cannon produced 14 points (5-of-7 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), two rebounds and two three-pointers on Saturday in the Sparks’ loss to the Lynx.
The veteran forward had her best game of the season on Saturday, scoring in double figures for the first time all season and finishing as one of Los Angeles’ top scorers. Cannon also topped the 20-minute mark to secure a season-high in minutes, which likely was a reward for her on-court contributions. It’s hard to predict if those minutes will carry over from game to game, considering Azurá Stevens will have more productive outings than she did in 17 minutes vs. Minnesota. Still, Cannon’s performance against the Lynx should only strengthen her spot as a reliable veteran in the nightly rotation.
