After NBA Letdown, Alex Rodriguez’s WNBA Dreams Crash and Burn as Minnesota Lynx Fail to Clinch Fifth Championship

Alex Rodriguez is rooting for his team, no matter what. The athlete-turned-businessman has been trying to turn around Minnesota’s NBA and WNBA scene since he took over in 2021. Alongside business partner Marc Lore, the former New York Yankees slugger is working hard in another sport. But it will be a while till the sport pays him back.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been in rebuilding mode for the last several years. With Rodriguez manning the helm, the team has significantly improved over the previous two seasons, consistently making the playoffs. But NBA Finals Championship dreams were put on hold when the T-Wolves lost to the Denver Nuggets in the playoffs in 2023. After that loss, all of Minnesota’s hopes were pinned on the Lynx.

Alex Rodriguez Cheers on Even as Minnesota Lynx Fall to Connecticut Sun

The sixth-seed Lynx has been competing against the third-seed Connecticut Sun for the playoffs. As per tradition, the first two games were held in Connecticut and when the Lynx forced a game three, the two teams arrived in Minneapolis. Alex Rodriguez has been active throughout the playoffs, cheering for his WNBA powerhouse. And he did the same last night.

Taking to Instagram, A-Rod posted a series of videos and pictures celebrating the Lynx. The first one is a clip of Target Center, which shows the Minnesota team being introduced. “Playoffs game 3” reads the caption. The next slide shows the stadium filled to the brim as Rodriguez aptly titles it, “Full house.”

The last story is a picture of the WNBA team owner with his A-Rod Corp colleagues Nick Silva and Alaina Sosangelis. “Teams all here,” Rodriguez has written, but unfortunately even with so many rooting for them, the night didn’t end well.

The Sun won 90-75 even with the Lynx giving it their all. In a rocky season, the Minnesota team managed to pull ahead, even though 2023 won’t be the season their efforts bring the fifth Finals title. Nevertheless, everyone on the team forges on as fans remain loyal.

Lynx Fans Are Proud, No Matter What

The WNBA team has been a mainstay in the professional basketball team for more than the last decade. Despite the rough stretch, fans will not give up on them.

When the team posted their final score to Instagram, wishes poured in. “Not a bad season. Really rocky start turned into a good finish. Rookies will be back better for year 2 🔥”

One wrote, “Y’all had a great season 🔥”

“Great season gang. Supposed to be tanking. Won a playoff game. Big offseason for Diamond and Dorka”

Another said,  “Great game ladies. We are proud of you guys. Next year is the year!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Great season team! Bigger and better next year. You’ve made us so proud!!”

Standing loyal alongside Minnesota will be Alex Rodriguez, working hard to make the Lynx one of the best.
