Current Injuries
| Player | Position | Status | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
 Olivia Miles | G | Out | It's possible the Lynx have an eye toward getting the rookie sensation back for the start of the playoffs Sunday. Dorka Juhasz and Maya Caldwell should remain more involved for Minnesota on Thursday. |
 Emma Cechova | F | Out | Cechova suffered a non-contact injury during Thursday's 90-86 win over Dallas and required assistance off the floor. After undergoing an MRI, she was diagnosed with a torn ACL, ending her season. The 21-year-old rookie appeared in three games, and she will finish the 2026 campaign by averaging 8.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 0.3 steals and 0.7 blocks across 17.3 minutes. With Cechova sidelined, Anastasiia Kosu could be first in line to see more action. |
 Anastasiia Olairi Kosu | F | Out | Kosu will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to a right foot injury. She'll finish the 2026 regular season with averages of 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds in 10.2 minutes per game across 30 regular-season appearances. |
 Elena Buenavida | G | Out | Buenavida will take a seat for Thursday's regular-season finale after initially being left off the injury report. She hasn't made an appearance for the Lynx after inking a developmental contract Aug. 11. |
