Tempers flared between the Lynx and the Mercury throughout Game 3 Friday evening in their WNBA semifinals series.
The true boiling point came with less than 30 seconds remaining in the game as Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve got incredibly heated at the officiating crew and stepped out onto the floor. What led to the outburst was Mercury star Alyssa Thomas getting a steal on Lynx star Napheesa Collier which turned into a lay-in on the other end to all but secure the win for Phoenix as they jumped out to a 2-1 series lead.
