Courtney Williams nearly missed the call notifying her of her WNBA All-Star selection, then led the Lynx with 25 points in a win over Chicago.

This is the tenth time multiple Lynx players have been selected to participate in the All-Star Game in the same season.

A tired-looking Lynx team fell behind 24-10 after one quarter. But the Lynx stepped up both the defense and the scoring in a 28-13 second quarter in which Williams scored seven. Then she had 11 in the third, as that lead grew to four. Williams’ three with 4:10 left in the game put the Lynx up six.
