Lindsay is back in action.
The Lynx announced Saturday that Lindsay Whalen, their former Hall of Fame point guard, will join the team as an assistant coach, along with former Washington Mystics coach Eric Thibault, who will be associate head coach.
Whalen, who led the Gophers to the Final Four and was a three-time All-America as a college point guard, also coached her alma mater for five seasons after retiring from the WNBA.
She was a two-time Olympic gold medalist and was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2022.
