Minnesota led 28-16 after the first quarter, then stretched the lead to 45-29 at halftime after holding Dallas to 11-for-37 shooting with eight turnovers before the break.

Paige Bueckers led Dallas (11-8) with 25 points on 10-of-17 shooting. Azzi Fudd had 21 points and made 12 of her first 14 shots in the third quarter, while Jessica Shepard had 16 rebounds.
