Impact Coffey was subbed out earlier than usual as a result of a landslide victory, but she was able to do significant damage in just over 20 minutes of action. She tied season highs in steals and blocks and scored in double figures for the first time since May 29. Coffey had been sluggish in the scoring column in her previous five games leading up to Monday, averaging 5.2 points over this stretch, though her performance against the Fire is a step in the right direction.

Coffey has hit 71.4 percent or better from the field in three of the previous four contests.

Cleared to play Thursday Coffey (shoulder) is available for Thursday's game against Dallas.

Impact Coffey was trending in the right direction but is now officially cleared to play versus the Wings. The 30-year-old is coming off a 13-point, 10-rebound double-double in Tuesday's 88-84 win over Phoenix. With Coffey available Thursday, it should mean less minutes for Emma Cechova and Antonia Delaere.

Expects to play Thursday Coffey (shoulder) has been upgraded to probable for Thursday's game against the Wings, Mitchell Hansen of CanisHoopus.com reports.

Impact Coffey was initially added to the injury report as questionable with a right shoulder issue, but she's trending in the right direction and has upgraded about one hour before tipoff. The team should have the final word on her availability after she goes through warmups.

MAY 14 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Added to injury report Coffey is questionable for Thursday's game against Dallas with a right shoulder injury, per Mitchell Hansen of CanisHoopus.com.

Impact Coffey is a late addition to the injury report, which doesn't bode well for her chances of playing Thursday. She's started back-to-back games for the Lynx to open the new year, so Emma Cechova or Antonia Delaere could jump into the first unit if Coffey is unable to play.

Racks up double-double Coffey accumulated 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), 10 rebounds and one block across 21 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 88-84 victory over the Mercury.

Impact Coffey was very efficient from the field, especially from behind the three-point line, while finishing with her first double-double of the 2026 campaign. Coffey, Natasha Howard, Kayla McBride and Courtney Williams are each getting an opportunity at expanded roles, particularly on offense, with Napheesa Collier (ankle) sidelined and recovering from ankle surgery. With her usage up, Coffey's fantasy value is up, too.
