Strong play against the Eastern Conference has helped the Minnesota Lynx become one of the season's surprise teams.

When she took the job as coach of the Washington Mystics in November, Julie Plank knew one of the first things she needed was an experienced point guard. She wanted someone who saw the game the same way she did, who could set an example of the work ethic she would demand and whom she could trust completely to run the show. As Plank considered the traits, one name immediately popped into her mind.

Plank had grown familiar with Lindsey Harding last season, while serving as a guards coach for the Minnesota Lynx. Harding was a true point guard with a confident swagger and defensive mind-set, and there was a chance that Minnesota might be willing to deal the 2007 first-overall draft pick in its latest rebuilding effort.
