Double-doubles in victory Howard supplied 26 points (11-15 FG, 4-5 FT), 14 rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes in Saturday's 85-75 win over the Sky.

Impact Howard got off to a strong start in this one, recording 22 points and nine rebounds across 17 first-half minutes. Although she was less productive as a scorer in the second half, the veteran forward dished out four assists in the final two quarters and ended up tying her season high in points. Howard also led all players in rebounds en route to her second double-double through six regular-season outings. She has now scored at least 13 points in five straight games and should continue seeing increased usage with Napheesa Collier (ankle) sidelined.

Contributes in multiple categories Howard racked up 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Thursday's 100-72 victory over Toronto.

Impact Howard was one of five Lynx players to score at least 13 points, while contributing favorably in both rebounds and assists. She had four turnovers, which isn't optimal, and the 34-year-old veteran has at least four miscues in every game this season. Still, she also has at least 13 points in four consecutive outings, and at least five rebounds in all five contests this season.

Impact Howard flirted with a double-double, falling one rebound shy while also tallying a season-high seven assists. Through four games in her first season back with Minnesota -- the franchise with which she won her first title in 2017 -- the forward has produced nicely. The 34-year-old will carry averages of 15.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.0 steals into the Lynx's next contest Thursday against the Tempo.

Impact Howard put together an efficient shooting performance by drilling 78.6 percent of her tries from the field on the way to a career-high 26 points. However, she failed to take care of the basketball, as shown by her seven turnovers. Despite her turnover issues, Howard has gotten off to a solid start to the 2026 campaign by averaging 14.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 blocks over her first three appearances.

Produces double-double in road win Howard finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-6 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 88-84 win over the Mercury.

Impact Howard is getting an opportunity at an expanded role with Napheesa Collier (ankle) out until at least June, as she recovers from ankle surgery. Howard was extremely efficient with her shot in the team's first victory of 2026, and she had her first regular-season double-double since going for 12 points and 12 rebounds in a home loss to the Dallas Wings on Aug. 12, 2025.

Available for Friday Howard (overseas commitment) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's exhibition against the Tempo.

Impact Howard has missed both of Minnesota's preseason matchups up to this point while fulfilling an overseas commitment, but she's since joined the team and should be available to take the court Friday night. The Lynx may elect to ease her into action in her first game of the preseason, so it's unclear as to how many minutes she'll handle.

Won't play Monday vs. Nigeria Howard (overseas commitment) has been ruled out for Monday's exhibition game against the Nigeria National Team.

Impact Howard is currently overseas and will miss the Lynx's second preseason game Monday. Her next chance to suit up for Minnesota is Friday against Toronto, but it's not clear whether she'll see the court prior to the start of the regular season May 10 against the Dream.

APRIL 26 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play in preseason opener Howard has been ruled out for Saturday's preseason opener against the Mystics due to an overseas commitment.

Impact It's not yet clear when Howard will rejoin the team, but she'll be unavailable for Minnesota's preseason opener. It's not yet clear whether she'll be available for the team's preseason matchup against the Tempo on May 1, but it wouldn't be surprising to see her back with the Lynx ahead of their regular-season opener against Atlanta on May 10. Once the regular season gets underway, Howard should play a prominent role in the frontcourt, especially while Napheesa Collier (ankle) is sidelined.
