Natisha Hiedeman · Natisha Hiedeman might’ve been outspoken about her excitement in seeing the Dallas Wings’ new additions in person, but when bucket-getting opportunities arose on May 21, 2025, she arrived equipped with ways to divide their defense in half. Proving Minnesota’s “revenge tour” to be a path too difficult for opponents to navigate, Hiedeman puts Tyasha Harris through a maze during the Lynx’s “Horns” set, quickly turning an off-ball cut into an inside-the-arc screen-and-roll. More accurate around the rim than at any point in her seven-year career, the Minnesota Lynx’s off-the-bench dynamo closes the deal with a smooth one-legged hook shot through traffic. Numbers will inevitably dip, but through the Lynx’s first nine games, Hiedeman is shooting 53.8 percent overall, and an almost-unfathomable 66.7 percent on 2-pointers. Such efficiency encouraged a 10-point (on three-of-six shooting), two-rebound, eight-assist, two-triple finish in Minnesota’s successful home opener. · State of Mint
