Who is Cheryl Reeve? Here’s everything we know about the Lynx’s head coach

The WNBA Finals are here, and when the Minnesota Lynx take the floor, head coach and president of basketball operations, Cheryl Reeve, will lead the team.

Reeve has been with the organization since 2010 and previously worked as an assistant coach with the Charlotte Sting, Cleveland Rockers and Detroit Shock before arriving in Minnesota. During her tenure with the Lynx, she’s helped the franchise secure four WNBA championships (2011, 2013, 2015, 2017) and has earned Coach of the Year four times. Reeve also has two WNBA Basketball Executive of the Year honors on her résumé.

The New Jersey native has rich basketball roots, including coaching in the college ranks with several universities and overseeing the USA women’s basketball team since 2021. Under her leadership, Team USA won gold during the 2022 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup and another gold medal at this year’s Paris Olympic Games.

Here’s an idea of what Cheryl Reeve brings to Minnesota as a coach.
